Ten by Ten…

… is an extraordinary website which collects 100 words and pictures summarising what three leading international news sources (BBC, Reuters and New York Times) are saying and showing and presents them as a single image, taken to encapsulate that moment in time. Over the course of days, months, and years, 10×10 leaves a trail of these hourly statements which, stitched together side by side, it is hoped will form “a continuous patchwork tapestry of human life”.

Each hour is presented as a picture postcard window, composed of 100 different frames, each of which holds the image of a single moment in time. Clicking on a single frame allows one to peer a bit deeper into the story that lies behind the image. It’s beautifully crafted web design and a lovely use of RSS.
