Information Aesthetics, a consistently clickable and notable blog, has Fernanda Viégas reporting back from the
InfoVis Conference in Sacramento this week. She has posted a great summary of the keynote address by Matthew Ericson. Brent Fitzgerald blogged yesterday about the panel that he, Fernanda, Martin Wattenberg and Hans Rosling are presenting as well. Taking a look at the conference programme, I could not but wish I was there. Thanks to Fernanda (and hopefully Brent) for giving us an experience as close to being there as possible.
By the way, today is the day of Fig, 7 Brumaire, An CCXVI.
Update: Something local and exciting: Social Networking Week at the University of Toronto. Fernanda is speaking on Friday.
