Continuing my lazy-man blogging, I sat down with my colleague Ben Chartoff last week for 15 minutes to talk about our mutual dislike for maps-as-data-visualization. I’ve posted links and images to the things we mentioned below (and apologies to Brandon Martin-Anderson, whose name I completely forgot.)
What do you think about maps? Great way to show data or second to pie charts?
And what do you think of these little audio recordings? Should I continue doing them? Turn them into a podcast? If you like them and want to chat with me about something data visualization or presentation skills-related, send me an email.
