Last Summer Second Life was all the rage in the popular media. In fact, one of the most linked (and found) pages on this blog are the Second Life Tutorials (more SL posts). However, as much as SL gathered media attention, the bigger interest for most of us was the discipline of engineering simulation and data visualization. While conducting some research recently, I became aware of an excellent visualization seminar series from Duke University. Like most research ... one link led to another ... which led to another, etc. Thus, here are the fruits of my labor with brief descriptions as to why each link is worth a click:
- Duke University Friday Forum - visualization engineering seminar series
(and) - IBM "Many Eyes" Tool - IBM AlphaWorks Web 2.0 visualization web site
- Georgia Tech Visualization Tutorials - learn by doing!
- Many Eyes Innovation Podcast - Science and Technology Podcasts
- Visualization Wikipedia Article
The Duke University Forum, and many of the other links have been added to the Engineering Learning Wiki. Please see these updated wiki sections:
Update on June 23, 2008: I've now created my own Many Eyes Tutorial
Update on Oct. 27, 2008 ... See Microsoft's new visualization tool, DataDepot
Rich - Thanks for your comment on my post on Many Eyes - I updated it to point to this post. Bill
