Data talks and keynotes from O’Reilly Strata conference

FlowingData has some nice reviews of the recent Strata Conference (Sold out, and already with next year’s in planning!).  There was a visualization track at the conference, but apparently it was more on UI than actual data visualization.

This is what I expected at a “big data” conference though, so not a huge deal. I mean, my roots are still stat, so it’s always entertaining to listen to people talk about how they’re making use of data, whether it be visualization or analysis. And for the most part, speakers were good about not getting into the nitty gritty details and keeping an eye on big picture.

He has some nice videos from presenters and links to a few slide decks.  If you couldn’t make it,
