If someone would suggest a reliable, free source of realtime data that won't fall under peak load from HN, I'd be happy to replace the random walk data source with something more realistic. (For example, stock data, wind measurements, etc.) I added a sine to the random walk to make it a bit more interesting, but these visualizations are much more compelling with real data.

You guys are doing amazing work at Square. These projects seem to keep reading my mind for what I'd build if I had time to devote to visualization.

Getting a stream off Twitter for words like "square", "visualization", "data", "d3", "javascript" wouldn't be too hard and falls over pretty rarely.

This new library looks great; it basically lets you do fancy visualizations of time series with data from any time series database. There's Graphite import code already. Square's related project Cube includes its own datastore; Cubism.js just pulls out the visualization part to use with your own datastore.

I'm less interested with the graphing and more interested in Cube itself, which seems to be a nice simple data warehouse solution.

Has anyone used this in production? How does it compare with other data warehousing projects? Are there any prominent alternatives?
