"Functional visualizations are more than innovative statistical analyses and computational algorithms. They must make sense to the user and require a visual language system that uses colour, shape, line, hierarchy and composition to communicate clearly and appropriately, much like the alphabetic and character-based languages used worldwide between humans."

It happens to me so many times that I can not completely understand a topic because it has a complex visualization, I mean, because it is not easy for myself to view or represent it phisically in my mind.
This web deals exactly with this issue:
Filtered by subjects, it shows a visual representation of a lot of complex networks. Having a look at them it is really easier to figure out how the relationship works.
I think that the information, to really exists, needs to be watched, has to get to the end of the chain, to the user, and information managers/professionals are the mean to make any kind of information available to any kind of user. However, there is some information, because of its complexity, which is still very hard to represent in an easy understandable way for non expert users. This web site, in my opinion, is achieving this goal. It is giving a new, attractive and well based and original shape to the visualization of quite a lot of networks and relationships.
The topic of the represented networks are very linked to IT, so that is another bonus to this site.
Lets have a look!
