12 Things Successful People Do in the First Hour of the Workday Seven things I learned about data visualization Last week, the World Bank Data team descended on New York City for Visualized - a two day event exploring the “evolution of communication at the intersection of big data, storytelling and design.” It was awesome. Here are seven things I learned: 1) Iteration is the path to perfection By now you’ve heard of Nate Silver - the statistician behind FiveThirtyEight and a near-perfect prediction of the 2012 US elections. Shan Carter from the NYT graphics team showed how newspapers have struggled to represent the potential scenarios and actual outcomes of US elections ever since the late 19th century. That’s 257 revisions. 2) Competitions can waste creative talent Scott Belsky of Behance - an online showcase of creative work talked about “the future of creative careers.” I paraphrase, but Scott gave the example of a company’s logo design contest that had a prize of EUR 1,500. But wait Tariq! Johan and Amparo (my economist colleagues...) point out that “life is a trade-off problem.”
