#2I really like things like this, and Codeology seems nicely done. I just wish the forms created gave a bit more meaningful insight into the project - perhaps communicating something about commit history, project structure, contributor network, or comments.

#3No workee. "Enter anyway" no workee. Version 48.0.2564.116 (64-bit), DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa"

#4Looks nice, though I do not get what I see. There is some correlation between distro size and visualization size, though why some repos have tentacle shapes, and others are blobs?

The shapes are primarily determined by the programming language used.

#7Cool visualizations ... A few comments / suggestions:
1) running the landing page in the background caused a lot of CPU churn and slowed my laptop. Consider moving to a simple animation for the landing.
2) Error that my browser is not supported (next to most recent chrome), but it worked anyway.
3) Interesting visualization, lowering color depth may improve performance without much loss of fidelity.
4) Some easily accessible key/explanation for chunks that are whizzing around -- whether that is a key or labels within visualization. Maybe I just didn't dig deep enough, but having that default on or prominent to turn on will help new users understand the visualization better.
Nice project!

#8For those that like things like this, check out http://gource.io/ - it's desktop only, but produces awesome visualizations. It works by going through your git history and essentially shows programmers buzzing around the code and updating files. It can do generic avatars, or even download their gravatar if they have one.
A lot of videos online, but two great ones are:
* The History of Python https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRjTyRly5WA * 800+ days of Minecraft in 8 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRjTyRly5WA

The other two videos are a bit crowded showing filenames. You can filter that out. The evolution of linux takes a different approach and filters out the filenames so you can see the people involved
