The Internet Live Stats is part of the Real Time Statistics Project. They are an
international team of developers, researchers , and analysts with the goal of making
statistics available in a dynamic and time relevant format to a wide audience around the
world. They pioneered two methods of visualizing data, first is the Single Unit Isotype
and the Live Isotype. Both are used on Internet Live Stats in addition to our live
statistic counters, for which they are the trusted leading provider worlwide, their clients
include BBC News, United Nations Conference Rio, Wired, Kaspersky Lab, etc.
Moreover, when they launched 7 Billion World in October 2011, they came up
with an important variation of the traditional Isotype system. With isotype, the system
developed in the 1930’s by Otto Neurath in which large sets of quantitative data are
visualized by repeating symbols of the same size rather than making the symbols larger
or smaller in order to convey magnitude, each symbol represents a large quantity. In the
words of Otto Neurath, the selection of the unit will be as great as possible but small
enough to give the rough curve of development clearly. This rule ensures that a
comparison can be easily made between multiple sets of symbols drawn within the
same picture on the page. But when the goal is to convey not a relationship between
quantities but the magnitude of a quantity, they thought that the best way to achieve this
was to make each symbol representative of a single unit. They had just introduced the
Single Unit Isotype, which is now employed across our live statistic projects, including

Furthermore, live counters is a part also of Internet Live Stats because when
using static numbers to describe numerical change through time, we fail to provide a
sense of the relationship between the magnitude of change and the flow of time, which
is how we experience change in real life. What static numbers fail to provide is the
perception of the frequency and timing of events, the rhythm, an essential part of nature
and a tool for understanding the physical phenomena surrounding us. When we
combine the live counters with the Single Unit Isotype concept, we achieve the ultimate
live statistic visualization. The live isotype represents a revolution for statistical
photographs.
In addition, this research study is about the different interactive websites which
are the YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and etc. Interactive website is
a website which can interact with it’s users. It allows the users to communicate and

ANALYSIS
The Internet Live Stats was use in order to record thoroughly and in order to
Furthermore, there are six websites that has been recorded and observed
according to the latest statistical data reported per day and also the number of users,
these are the videos reviewed, Facebook active users, Twitter active users, photos
The first website that I have interacted with was the videos reviewed that in five
minutes interaction and at 2:50 in the afternoon there are 23, 436,278 videos that has
been reviewed already, the second website was Facebook in five minutes also at 3:12 in
the afternoon there are already 2,458,248,474 users, next is the Twitter within five
Moreover, the photos that has been uploaded on Instagram at 3:18 in the
afternoon there are already 371,713 photos that has been uploaded, next is the Pinterest
and within five minutes interaction at 3:24 in the afternoon there are 283,321,122 active
users already, while in Skype calls at 3:31 in the afternoon there are already 1,115,438
calls.

CONCLUSION
Therefore, interactive websites are a big help on our society and also to our
country because each and every day the level of users are increasing, we are very
thankful and proud to our website developers because without them we’ll not having
these kinds of websites which are interesting to do with. As time flies different websites
are going to be develop, so we should treasure and use these in a nice way so that our
population of users will increase and for the people to become more productive and
eligible when it comes to social medias. We should always remember that when using
these websites we should manage our time also so that our other tasks or obligations in
