Some very nice stuff I came across recently

Soundamus: Pass along your last.fm username, and it will give an RSS feed of the upcoming releases of your favorite artists, and suggestions of related artists. Just as simple and good as it could be.

Redesigning a bar chart: FlowingData asks the readers to come up with better graph visualization of a badly designed bar chart. (also, keeping an eye at flowingdata.com)

Lee Byron: great infographic artist, just graduated from Carnegie Mellon and is now headed to the NYtimes. I'm sure I came across his work before, but didn't know about his blog. (Latest post, very interesting: Plotting walkability scores for San Francisco.)

Speaking of the NYtimes, I don't know how, but after a long series of following links back and forth the other day, I ended up in a nytimes column that I found very interesting: The Ethicist. Subscribed! (I actually registered in nytimes.com to read it). Sometimes the traditional media shows its point (as long as you consider "traditional" to read a journal column via a RSS reader, 5000 miles far from the city where it is published).
