I’ve banged on recently about graphics in presentations… seems I’m not the only one interested!<\/p>\n
The great Guy Kawaski<\/a> pointed me at this article<\/a> (via twitter). It’s a great example of how to present data visually – and thus in a suitable way for presentations.. at least in concept, the lines are too thin to show properly when projected but the idea is sound.<\/p>\n It’s a “map” of how people moved from journals in one field to journals in another thus illustrating the linkages between them, and by implication showing the logical linkages between them.<\/p>\n I like it because it does three things at the same time which are pretty trickly to pull off in combination. Firstly, it gives a great overview, allowing the ‘storyline’ to be sussed out at a glance. Secondly it contains an absolute wealth of detailed information that one can spend ages getting to grips with. Thirdly, of course, it’s just visually interesting.<\/p>\n All in all a nice combination. Heaven alone knows how long it takes to create but if you want to create a killer presentation, I’d say that finding the time to do this kind of thing is actually a presentation skill in itself! :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve banged on recently about graphics in presentations… seems I’m not the only one interested!
