Design and implementation process of data products for Dow Jones (WSJ, MarketWatch, SmartMoney, Factiva) begins with a roundtable and ends with rigorous testing. Visual experiences to assist in understanding data is getting a opportunity to reinvent itself with touchinteractions. Luke's talk will be about the process we go through to make data visualization products for Dow Jones users.
