Information is Beautiful
David McCandless's newsletter on turning data into clear, honest visualizations
About
David McCandless made his name with data visualizations that prioritized clarity and even beauty over the usual chart-junk, and his newsletter extends that same project: new visualizations, commentary on how to represent data honestly, and critiques of charts that mislead.
It's as much about visual design craft as it is about the underlying data, which sets it apart from more statistics-heavy analytics newsletters. Good for readers who think about data communication, not just data itself.
