Maps of information

I tossed out the term "information visualization" a couple of posts ago. There's a nice brief description of the term on Carl Malamud's mappamundi site, along with a very pretty picture of the net as visualized by the people at Visual Insights.

Incidentally, I looked at the Visual Insights web site today, and it turns out they did eventually do something to look at server logs. In fact, it looks like that's the main thing they push today. It's a shame I didn't have access to it when I was webmaster for Bell Labs.

What do you mean there is no cat?

"You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."

- Albert Einstein, explaining radio

There used to be a cat
