Been reading about very slick new data visualization technologies-some highly useful, others very gimmicky like Wordle.
On the useful side, I find this local company @RecordedFuture very cool. Recorded Future recently decided to use data visualization to analyze and identify the strength of geopolitical relationships among countries. They used a unique set of data extracted using their News Analytics API — 7,000 trips to foreign countries by 1,000 prominent politicians, generals and business people. To visualize and analyze the data, they turned to Tibco Spotfire.
The strongest connection of all is between Washington, D.C. and Beijing.
