Journalism in the Age of Data (by Geoff McGhee)
Former colleague, Geoff McGhee, did a great job of collecting today’s expert voices on data visualization. Some folks are simply data rock stars (ie: Amanda Cox). Looks like Geoff’s time with NYTimes’ video unit also paid off. The video gave a nice little hat-tip to motion graphics as well challenged the current trend of data visualization not connecting with our readers. Nice work, McGhee.
