After last week’s Makeover Monday, several people pointed me to this tweet from World Economic Forum, asking me to immediately give it some love.
It looks like WEF hired howmuch.net to create this tree-map pie chart thingy, as they have a more extensive write up about it here. I’ve used story points to review the visualisation, walk through a series of alternatives, and then conclude with an interesting tidbit about how uninteresting their data is.
