{Milestones in the History of Thematic Cartography, Statistical Graphics, and Data Visualization}
An illustrated chronology of innovations by Michael Friendly and Daniel J. Denis
A good web reference for graphic designers who want to study info-graphic. It is interesting to check both their old web site and the current one to see how the idea was developed and visualized.

Dear Sir,

I have the pleasure to brief on our Data Visualization software
"Trend Compass".

TC is a new concept in viewing statistics and trends in an animated
way by displaying 5 axis (X, Y, Time, Bubble size & Bubble color)
instead of just the traditional X and Y axis. It could be used in
analysis, research, presentation etc. In the banking sector, we have
Deutsche Bank New York as our client.

I hope you could evaluate it and give me your comments. So many ideas
are there.

You can download a trial version. It has a feature to export
EXE,PPS,HTML and AVI files. The most impressive is the AVI since you
can record Audio/Video for the charts you create.
