The way we present data inherently influences how it is consumed and interpreted. With the ability of data online to be generated in real time, the kind of animated graphs required are a far cry from the standard excel pie and line charts. But collaboration between software developers and designers have spawned new data visualizations that rival art.
DoodleBuzz is a great example of fusing interactive design with data collation. You simply type in your news theme or topic and draw a line, picture anything you like on the white canvas to begin the news feed. Whatever you draw then becomes the framework for the headlines, summaries and related topics. It is a new experimental interface and highlights how far you can push infographics on the online space.
