[IxDA Discuss] Graphical methods for displaying time elapsed

[Peter Boersma]

Dan asked:
> Any other novel representations of time or an event in time?

Maybe some old ones will inspire you: A timeline of timelines
http://www.cabinetmagazine.org/issues/13/timelines.php

Or this new one:
Morningstar Stock Chart tool (with Custom tab that gets activated when you select your own timeframe)
http://tools.morningstar.com/charts/Mcharts.aspx?Security=NTDOY&sLevel=D#GCHARTS

And there are 157 infographics in this Flick pool, you never know if one is useful:

And may I suggest browsing through some of Edward Tufte's works? (http://www.edwardtufte.com/tufte/)
(although he and NASA don't go well together always...)
