Reflection

Well, this project I was really excited about.  I wanted to do so many things, like animated circles which could present data in cool ways and have a UI which would let people look at the data in different ways and compare the relations of the data.  Then I realized that that would not be feasible in the amount of time that I had.  Not to mention, the kinds of data I wanted (murder statistics and other things) aren't actually readily available, and especially not for other countries.  So I had to scale down.  A lot.  It was very disappointing actually.  If I had more time I could probably make what I originally wanted on a smaller scale (U.S. only), but I realize that with certain time allocations some things really should be kept simple.  Not to mention that inputting data and approximating circles based on large numbers is actually REALLY HARD.  More time means finding a formula that would produce more accurate and pretty results.   Otherwise, I was disappointed that I had to scale down my idea to simple graphics instead of nice, animated circles and data, but it was still a lot of fun.
