began as a site of self-published essays, a la Stating
The Obvious. This evolved (or devolved) towards link lists and shorter

| Visualize Articles Worth Reading Posted on 06/19/2002. |

In researching the topic of information visualization for an essay I'm writing, I came across InfoVis.net, a general resource site on the topic.

I've been readign InfoVis for about a year now (I think) via an mailing list and I really dig it. Okay, sometimes it's a big goofy or obtuse, but lots of good ideas tucked inside.
