Newsvis - the direcgtory of visualisations
There are a great many challenges in further integrating digital thinking into our newsrooms, but one of the easiest to overcome is the immediate reduction of needless jargon.
The Times in particular has a justified reputation as an arbiter of clear, elegant and grammatical writing. Being...
While developing a typography widget for the long form content tool I’m working on, I was struck by how little ability modern WYSIWYG editor libraries have in terms of easily modifying text tracking, or “letter-spacing” as it’s known in CSS.
This kind of astonished me — is web typography really...

his past few days have been busy and fun. On Wednesday I gave a keynote presentation at the Tapestry conference. On Thursday I spoke at the Investigative Reporters and Editors meeting (CAR2014.) In both talks I discussed some topics that concern me quite a bit: • The rise of activism and P.R. (they are expressions of the same phenomenon) in visualization and in communication in general. Nothing against people having opinions and agendas —is it possible not to have them?— but I feel that some designers and journalists seem to be too willing to surrender to their biases rather than working hard to curb them. • These communicators usually argue that being transparent about their motives and goals is enough. Well, it's not. Writing about journalism, Jay Rosen and Jeff Jarvis have suggested that transparency is the new objectivity. I disagree. Transparency is necessary to gain credibility, but it's not sufficient, and this is valid for non-journalistic infographics and visualization, too. The old notion of 'objectivity' in journalism was simplistic and unworkable, but that doesn't mean that we should rush to drop the ideal outright.

A great site to look at data visualisations
Libor: The Spider Network The Libor manipulation scandal has ensnared at least 17 financial institutions and 28 individuals in a wide-ranging investigation spanning 11 countries and four continents. So far, it has netted at least $5 billion in penalties, with more on the way. Below, we've taken the most complete list of allegedly involved parties, compiled by WSJ reporters and editors, and mapped an extensive web of connections that reveals the depth of the alleged conspiracy. Connections do not represent allegations of wrongdoing. The Journal has attempted to contact every institution and individual mentioned in this graphic. Their comments, if any, are included.
