Attended Tufte's one-day course a couple of days ago. "No matter how beautiful your interface is, it would be better if there was less of it." "Clutter and overload are not attributes of data, they are a failure of design." - http://www.edwardtufte.com/tufte...

"Clutter and overload are not attributes of data, they are a failure of design." (Why doesn't FF tell me when it's going to cut off my post?)

I just had a shorter list of "take-homes"... ;) your notes are great though... my one practical lesson for presentations is having a "super graphic" / "infographic" that almost by definition cannot be in a ppt, must be a handout...

Speaking of PowerPoint: Has anyone played with http://www.officelabs.com/project... (requires PowerPoint2007)?
- Eric Jain
that looks pretty cool... and it does provide a way to do a Tufte-ian supergraphic in a low-res projected presentation. I'd try it if I had PP2007...
