Information Visualisation
E-mails. News. Facebook. Wikipedia. Do you feel ever feel that there’s just too much information? Do you struggle to keep up with important issues, subject and ideas? Are you drowning in data?

The approach is simple: apply the rules of visual design to information – make information into images, rather than text.
