  1. finds his book on Amazon Kindle amazon.com/Practical-Guid… Always strange to see stuff like this when googling his own name.
  2. makes his 9th KIVA loan (above average), has all sorts of other stats! You can help too kiva.org/invitedby/bria…
  3. @openplaques can you email me suda.co.uk/contact so we can talk more than 140 chars at a time. Thanks.
  4. @openplaques Thanks these are all excellent links. We've got a great funded candidate project with the City of Reykjavik. More soon!
  5. With all this new fangled 3D printing technology, we're freezing people in carbonate? insidethemagic.net/2012/05/inside… Awesome!
  6. @RobertMills Not a prob, when we get prints of icelandillustrated.com made I'll send you one. I hope you enjoyed your visit.
  7. picks a random point on the globe next week for optional.is/contest/ You have a few days to enter. The page now responsive w/ embedded fonts
  8. @BERGLONDON @itsnicethat @AlexNeedham74 @GuardianCulture It took a bit, but found the link directly to the MP3 huffduffer.com/briansuda/74933
  9. publishes his chapter for the Data Journalism Handbook optional.is/required/2012/… under Creative Commons License.
  10. @infobeautiful I get that, but it makes it seem the other gender equals 50% when that's not true.
  11. @pcrickard Yes on all 3 accounts. The map is hand-drawn, water-colored and isometric-ish. We have posters if you are interested.
  12. @paulrobertlloyd I can help you leverage that synergy, boosting your viral coefficient to make it more serotonin.
  13. Hey, @infobeautiful, your new graphic is still as confusing as the old. informationisbeautiful.net/visualizations… Each icon represents 2% not 1%.
  14. looks forward to "The Link" channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/the-li… by @joshuaklein starting this week. If you like history and tech, it looks interesting!
  15. readlists.com is going to be an awesome tool. I'll create loads of Visualization Related reading lists for everyone who keeps asking.
  16. sat through a long and pointless meeting thinking about how much of the budget was wasted having everyone there. Onto happier things now.
  17. looked at 3D ceramic printing, but costs too much. Any other solutions for a custom bowl? flickr.com/photos/suda/72… I could do it in clay by hand
  18. managed to get some font-embedding working, but seems to crash his 1G iPad on resizing. Is there a fix or known issue? #lazyweb
  19. @whatterz adana eight-five, I haven't played with it much, but it is all ready to go now. So hopefully more pictures in the future.
  20. @andybudd Thanks, it is strange to learn the analog equivalents of many digital typography things. I need to get some Icelandic chars too.
