Ask Mr Tufte

My current favourite time-wasting site is that of Edward Tufte, who has narrowly edged out the Exile recently. If you don't know, Mr Tufte is something of a guru in the matter of presenting information, so I suppose it's almost relevant to, but more interesting than, work.

His discussion boards are diverse and intoxicating, taking in radar maps of migrating birds, color charts for farmed salmon, and why PowerPoint is crap (this pleases me, because I think it is).

Great link, Dave. Thanks for that - will spent many a happy hour absorbing the stuff on his site.

Yes it is great. I'm still finding new treasures. And I can claim that it's (almost) relevant to work.
