The .SCHI.IS.THE.LIMIT.NEWSMAP project aims to integrate social elements into news consumption, making it more interactive and personalized. By allowing users to see what their friends have read on a map, we strive to create a community-focused news experience. Our methods include clustering news items, introducing social sharing via Facebook, and implementing pop-ups for easier access to articles. Although we saw an increase in article views, the challenge remains to convert these into more active users. Overall feedback has been positive, indicating user satisfaction with the new features.
