An awesome infographic on 50 years of space exploration from National Geographic, although they’re using a kludgey flash viewport. Check out the full size version while it lasts.

Periodic table of controllers. An interesting infographic of video game controllers, would be bit cooler if it mimicked the structure of the periodic table a bit better.

Designing for big data http://davekellam.com/items/view/159/designing-for-big-data

Jeffrey Veen’s presentation on designing for big data. A quick peek into the history of data visualization, how we’re changing from consumers into participants, and how technology has allowed huge amounts of information to be recorded, stored, and analyzed. Personally, I’m just starting to get my feet wet with processing.org and will need to setup some sort of venue to display my experiments.

The Science of Typography http://davekellam.com/items/view/101/the-science-of-typography

The Periodic Table of Typefaces. I have to admit that I like the concept, but the science nerd in me has issues with the execution. The shape roughly resembles the original table, but it fails to make any discernible connection between the typefaces.
