One of the best data visualizations I’ve ever seen is The Histomap.
https://www.thehistomap.com
It condenses 4,000 years of history into a single poster.
I remember seeing it on the wall of a used bookstore when I was a kid. I spent an hour just staring at it - exploring each part in detail.
I’ve been thinking about making a “Social Media Histomap” detailing the rise and fall of social media over the last 30 years.
Anyone interested in working together on this?
