Those of you who're interested in dashboards and how visualize complex information, might want to check out a source called Perceptual Edge. One of the partners of the company, Stephen Few, has done a lot of work studying the best ways to communicate complex business information in limited space. He was a guest lecturer in the InfoViz class last semester and provided a lot of good examples of well-designed dashboards. I believe he is also a lecturer at Haas, so he cares both about the business value of those dashboards and about their usability.
