+===== Project Description =====
+Ambient Earth is a project to visualise the buzz of the internet. It shows "earth" from outer space and every time a new story is written, a satellite is launched from earth, starting to orbit it.
+{{public:ambient_earth:amber-screenshot.png|}}
+A story usually has a certain topic. It might be about how nice the flowers bloom in spring or about higher order mathematics. Amber can be configured to detect several topics and attract satellites towards external gravity points representing those topics.
