Effective Information Visualization

1. Ask a specific question

2. Gather information

3. Apply a metric and represent it using: size, color, location, network, time.

Color is good for enormous sets of data.
Networks become a mess with more than 100 nodes.

Rule of thumb: Use 3 dimensions or less of information! Tell a story!
