It’s that time again, it’s an open call for User Input and Opinion.
- What is VizWorld Missing?
- What could we improve?
- What would you like to see more of? Less of?
Chime in, all comments & criticisms welcome (but please keep it civil). Add Job Listings? Do More Podcasts? Got a company we should cover? A topic we missed? Or just want to talk amongst yourselves?
Use this post to do it, or anywhere in the forums!
This look interesting,so far.
If there are any real people here looking to network, leave me a post.
Oh, and yes I’m a real person LOL.
See ya,

Is the existing Graphics category insufficient for this?
I would like to suggest more categories, and separate RSS feeds for each. I am on the fence about continuing to read VizWorld because there are so many articles per day. I’d at least like to see an additional Movies/VFX category (that’s the main class of posts I personally need to skip over). Maybe a separate Games category as well?
@ Randall Hand
Well, I’am bad in knowing names 🙂 But one person I can say: Jim Blinn. What does he do today ? Or Tamara Munzner (Graph Drawing)…

Well all of us here at VizWorld are flattered to hear you say that 🙂 Anybody in particular you would like to see interviewed?
For me VizWord is one of the best theme oriented sites I know. The presentation is fine, the issues are well mixed, and the event calendar is great. As the video cast. Perhaps one thing could be added: more interviews with Gurus from the buisness and art and university.

I’ld love to get more contributors involved. I’ve used conferences as opportunities to talk to people, and the traffic statistics show that it’s working. But that’s mainly in the scientific community.
I’m open to suggestions 🙂
Guess we need to attract more readers and writers from the viz community. Increase visibility by some word-of-mouth communication? Then again, a lot of the work out there is proprietary and no one wants to talk about it or come off as sounding like a marketeer.
