The Word Philes 4

The Word Philes
The Word Philes

Today's entry in The Word Philes is a bit odd, because it's not really a pure text article. It is, however, a brilliant piece of work that deserves as much publicity as it can get, so it's with great pleasure that I'm doing my part. The article will be very interesting to many of us and also a great learning tool for any teachers out there.

Over at Wallstats, Jess posted A Visual Guide To The Financial Crisis back in December - someone just pointed it out to me today. Admittedly, it's a very simplified analysis - it has to be, given that it's only a couple of diagrams - but it shows how the US economy reached the point where it went into crisis.

Beautifully presented, clear and concise, it's a great piece of work and shows how a presentation should be done. Pop over and have a gander: definitely worth your time.

My son is a bit disappointed that you haven't sent him a message to say thanks for coming up with the term Wordophilia.

The raping and pillaging of intellectual property rampant on the net disgusts him.

He also told me to tell you he's just joking, and thinks Wordophilia suits you.

Ohh, I do like a good bit of rape and pillage. Especially the pillage.

I took a screenshot on Wordo the other day that was inspired by your blog name. It amused my puerile, adolescent little brain. Have a look here: Really Long Link

What a very clever...and interesting chart. It's worth framing really.
