The Seedy Underbelly of the Charts and Graphs World

File under: ain’t this site a nifty resource? It’s Junk Charts. It’s a site dedicated to nothing but charts and graphs found lingering around in ads, newspapers, and anywhere where you usually find such things. It’s useful in two respects: a) it goes into great detail about what’s not working in the examples, how the data being discussed isn’t being put clearly enough, and b) because it’s showing you what not to do, it’s a good method of learning how to do it right when it comes to your own work.
