Edward Tufte in the Northwest!

Edward Tufte, one of the pioneers of modern data visualization, will give day-long workshops in Portland and Seattle in June (the 20th and 21st in Seattle, the 22nd in Portland, and other locations around the country as well). If you've seen my previous posts on data visualization, you know that Tufte has heavily influenced my thinking in this area.

I haven't seen Tufte speak before, but considering the genius of his books (and that you receive all four for registering, a hefty value in themselves), I highly recommend that you attend.
