Countdown to MIX09: Discovery with Scrutiny, Obesity and Stella!

Feb 3, 2009 By


The newest release from the MIX Online team is Project Descry, that which demonstrates the power of data and information visualization as a communication tool. As a part of Descry, we are releasing a set of open source, web-based visualizations and an article that serves as a broad introduction to the topic. The MIX Online team talks to Mike and Jennifer about Descry, and what coolness they will be bringing to MIX09 this year. Check it out!

Ah...now I finally understand the connection between MIX and MIX Online. That was really confusing.

How do you contribute to a MIX Online Project?

@discorax - Yeah, a bunch of people have found this confusing (and for good reason). I think we try to explain it on the About page, but we may need to do something more.

As for contributing, go to our "lab":http://visitmix.com/Lab and figure out what project you''re interested in, go to the project page, follow the link to CodePlex site to the project (usually codeplex.com/name_of_project, and start contributing there. Separately, we always love getting a discussion going on "Articles":http://visitmix.com/Articles and "Opinions":http://visitmix.com/Opinions.
