Color Brewer
Thursday, May 1st, 2008Here is an interesting website for creating color schemes for maps – it’s not something I need but it is an easy way to test drive color schemes that can be recreated in other graphics.
Go to Color Brewer Introduction.
Presentation of data
Wednesday, April 30th, 2008I came across an interesting website this week – Perceptual Edge. The author of the site has a page with examples of really, really bad graphs in powerpoint with his alternate version below
I don’t agree with all of his choices but I do see his point each time.

Omni Group
Monday, March 31st, 2008If you have a mac (sorry no pc versions) and you haven’t seen the Omni Group website – you owe ito to yourself to check it out. I mentioned “Getting Things Done” in an earlier post. This is where you find Omni Focus which was built based on the GTD book.
The Omni Graffle product makes Visio and Powerpoint graphic tools look ancient!
Video to see
Friday, March 28th, 2008This is in the same line as the previous post on “Getting Things Done” and 43 folders.
If you can, take about 45 min and watch this video – http://www.43folders.com/2007/07/25/merlins-inbox-zero-talk. Merlin is not only a good presenter but gave me much to think about. After watching this I took my inbox from 600 unread emails to 2. I’m keeping it lower than before (50-100) and can get it to zero a few times a month.
I also found his PowerPoint slides interesting. At first blush I hated them because they were so sparse but having checked out a book recommendation from Merlin, Presentation Zen, I am beginning to appreciate them a bit more.
Organization of Office and Email
Friday, March 28th, 2008If you have not seen it, consider finding “Getting Things Done” in your local bookstore.
It is fantastic! I am taking much of the advice to heart in getting my home office under control. In the same vein, there is a website 43 folders that is very helpful. The 43 folders piece is from the GTD book and will make more sense in context.
