Look what I found: two amazing charts
Kaiser Fung points to all too rare an occasion – two finely done charts – in different styles – same subject.
Can you point to a topic map visualization that is this clean and compelling?
Something to think about when displaying data.
Geeks like the springy graph stuff.
Take a walk around the next corporate office you visit.
How many people are using springy graph displays for their work flow?
Write that number down.
After a 3 month period, total up the number of people outside your office you saw using springy graph displays.
What is your day job?
😉
Don’t get me wrong, I think graphs data structures are the next big wave.
The question in my mind is how effectively can the average office dweller use graphs, displayed as graphs, for their work flow?
I have no doubt a word processor could be written with a graph data structure and even display. Would be hard to persuade me to try to sell that in a business market.
To be effective, like Kaiser’s examples, a chart (or software) has to appeal to more people than just you.
