Out of the three resolutions I made this new year this is the only one I’ve not broken yet. Sad but true. 8 days in I’ve already had a beer and cut my hair. Re-launching, writing, and designing for this site is the only one that remains, and with the constant challenge of Anton’s Project52 bearing down upon me I intend to keep it.
The basic idea is to write 1 post every week, 52 posts for 2010. This is number 1. Hello.
Now this first post is a bit of a copout, and it’s for the same excuse I’ve been using for the past year - I’ve had no time. But, I have been getting my act together. I’ve been busy. I could have posted screenshots of the new design (oh yea!), written about the upcoming news browsing visualisation I’ve been working on at my dayjob, or even documented all the un-used ideas, mockups, and files for the original DTN series. However, it being after 2am on the last day of entry for the first #p52 of the year - I haven’t.
Next week will be better. Promise. Until then here’s a little promo video I made a while ago which I’ve been meaning to post for bloody ages.
I know, the resolution’s crappy and my video editing sucks. I’ve used the program maybe twice!
For those of you on twitter who are so inclined, I’m posting regular updates on data visualisation and infographic stuff on the DTN twitter account. I’m planning a sweet visualisation of my twitter followers at some point, so if you want to be immortalised in print you should really follow me!
