Today the NYTimes showed a photo in their "Pictures of the Day" section of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center. The dashboard in the background jumped out for all the wrong reasons. There must be a 3D mandate for all Homeland Security graphs. Someone, please rush the Department of Homeland Security copies of all of Stephen Few's books, especially Information Dashboard Design!
