A quick test for visualizing similar artist data harvested from MusicBrainz and Last.FM. It's also been coupled with Amazon's web service so you can see a list of albums sold by the artist.

I built an editor for adding and removing markers in a poly line. The editor features your basic select, add, and delete functions, and also uses a pretty nifty algorithm to determine the characterizing points out of hundreds of candidate points.
