The world is getting more and more intricate, and people's attention span shorter and shorter. I started a company eight years back on the basis that I could see Data Networks getting more and more complex, and more people needing a way to understand what a network was doing without becoming technical experts - hence, visualisation has been absolutely key for us. One of our 'bibles' has been Ed Tufte's wonderful series of books (http://www.edwardtufte.com, for any readers who don't know him) which, on top of being simple and enlightening, are beautifully printed and lovely to hold and leaf through. Thanks for the link. This is a great collection, JP. The world is getting more and more intricate, and people’s attention span shorter and shorter.

There is a need for a presentation software that lets you present in ANY of these many formats. http://www.visual-literacy.org/periodic_table/periodic_table.html This goes on to show that the PowerPoint application is vastly inadequate.

I've been interested in visualisation tools for about 7 years now and have implemented 2 knowledge systems in my organisation using a hierarchical tree. Now looking for a new tool to help visualise networks if possible. Will take a much deeper look for some inspiration... Salv JP, I think this is brilliant.

But that's a great picture - especially for someone like me with a genuine work need and a genuine non-work enthusiasm for data insight techniques. Thanks for the pointer.

Great stuff from Isaac. I'm still going through his bookmarked items there. Couldn't resist trying to classify some of the items in the context of the "periodic table" above. Interesting exercise.

It's a great tool. We've been working hard to use more visual techniques in our work and this is a great contribution. Plus it's fun so I'll be putting the word out too. Go Web!
