Magic Ink: Information Software and the Graphical Interface

A screed by Bret Victor. The only document I've read that compares with Edward Tufte (author of four famous books on information design). Shows how beautiful a web page can be. My favourite parts were
  • Demonstration: Showing the data. Redesigning Amazon as an information graphic.
  • Demonstration: Arranging the data. Redesigning Yahoo! Movies as an information graphic.
I would skip to those to start. Spotted via Lambda the Ultimate.
