ACM Survery of Graphs
ACM has an interesting survey of graph types. I don't like most of them, *especially* graph types like the stacked graphs in 1B that introduce correlations into the visual representation of the data that aren't in the data. The splom in Figure 2C, however, is a very nice representation that I'd never seen before.

That's a neat website. I may go back to it when I'm trying to revisualize all that data I was talking to you about earlier... thanks
Each time I see figures 3b or 3d in the nytimes they are used to show weight or voting data.
There's a facebook app that shows how friends are connected that is 5b, but in the round. Privacy concerns aside, it's pretty spiffy.
Oooooh, like.
Last week on the work collaborative-graph whiteboard: a horizontal axis reading "good represented as 2d graph <---> bad as 2d graph" and two big non-intersecting circles labeled "good as venn diagram" and "bad as venn diagram".
