finvisAnya Savikhin and Stephen Rudolph presented their “FinVis” product, available for free on Google Code and developed on grant from the NSF, at VisWeek.  The talk was good, but it’s being berated a bit in the Q&A.  The tool looks promising, but very early in development.  What do you think?

    As someone who writes about finance and who spent many years drawing diagrams to try to explain portfolios and planning objectives to people I appreciate the value of visualisation.

    I would suggest that this would be a most worthwhile project and I hope that it gains support and momentum.
