		<title>Q&amp;A on Beautiful Visualization</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was recently asked some questions about the Beautiful Visualization (O&#8217;Reilly 2010) and my role as the technical editor and chapter contributor.
How did you end up working on Beautiful Visualization?
I was given the opportunity to work on the book because of my previous research and master&#8217;s thesis on methods of creating quality information visualizations.
Why is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Critique: periodic table of controllers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We Love Datavis posted this Periodic Table of Controllers by Mike Vasilev.

It&#8217;s interesting and clever, and suffers from the same problem that plagues all periodic tables of not-elements: the contents of the table aren&#8217;t periodic, rendering the periodic format irrelevant. In this case we&#8217;re looking at a chronological list, that happens to be laid out [...]]]></description>

		<title>Organic growth of a social network</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This movie reveals more knowledge by showing not only which individuals know each other, but also when and how the social network formed, by calling out the contexts and individuals responsible for an introduction between two new friends. Visually representing more complexity allows the viewer a deeper understanding of the social dynamics and causalities involved. ]]></description>

		<title>UI FAIL</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;S/R products fall into several broad categories, and they are divided this way on the site. The categories are accessible via the pulldown menu in the upper-right hand part of this page below the header bar. An explanation of the categories is below.&#8221;
Unfortunately, you can&#8217;t click anywhere below to get to the categories explained there, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tire selection chart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a short story of user experience, information visualization, and design choices. I like Rivendell Bicycle Works for a lot of reasons (see below). However, one thing they don&#8217;t do particularly well is allow you to compare products on their web site. 
When comparing a few randomly sorted parts, such as rear deraillers, looking [...]]]></description>

		<title>VizThink wrap-up and notes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[VizThink &#8216;09 was awesome. I&#8217;ve come back exhausted, energized, and inspired, with a load of new ideas. 
Thanks to everyone who presented, who attended my sessions, who asked good questions in all situations, who I talked with and listed to and shared meals with. It was a fantastic time. Special thanks goes out to the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bourbon-molasses Supernatural Brownie recipe</title>
		<description><![CDATA[[I'm justifying posting a recipe here with the thinking that good food is a good user experience.]
These are my favorite brownies. The recipe is shamelessly stolen (and modified) from the The New York Times and The Splendid Table. See those sites for advice on using baking parchment, fancy unpanning, adding nuts (blasphemy!) or frosting, etc. [...]]]></description>
