Also when a user wants to see different moods according to different locations (for now it is only 2) he can overlay with his/her mouse to those titles and can see outline of local mood landscapes overlayed on the actual display. The properies of the visualization can be extended pretty easily. Once I start to work on the flash piece probably I am going to be enriching this piece.
