Session descrip­tion

When visu­al­iza­tion is cou­pled with col­lec­tive intel­li­gence it becomes a very pow­er­ful tool for mak­ing sense of the data that is now an increas­ing part of our per­sonal and orga­ni­za­tional expe­ri­ence. But how do you design social web appli­ca­tions so they can use visu­al­iza­tion effectively?

In this ses­sion I’ll present a model for using visu­al­iza­tion on the social web; dis­cussing why social set­tings are a great match for visu­al­iza­tion and how more gen­eral UX ideas can be applied to the design of social visu­al­iza­tion. I’ll also describe 5 inter­ac­tion design pat­terns that will help design­ers and devel­op­ers make the tran­si­tion from the­ory to prac­ti­cal application.
