			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Strategic marketing plans need to build private foresight out of (often) public data and to seize their audiences’ hearts and minds.   So successful data presentation needs elegant, resolved simplicity.</p>
<p>For inspiration, here are three  sources on the web about data design and statistics:</p>
<ol>
<li><a title="Information is Beautiful" href="http://www.informationisbeautiful.net/" target="_blank">Information is Beautiful</a> is the blog of an independent journalist and data designer with a focus on how &#8220;designed data&#8221; can help us understand the world.</li>
<li><a title="Gapminder" href=" http://www.gapminder.org/" target="_blank">Gapminder</a> is a non-profit venture for sustainable development through the increased use of statistics and information.  It describes itself as a &#8220;modern museum&#8221; that helps make the world understandable.</li>
<li><a title="Guardian Newspaper Datastore" href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/1115946@N24/" target="_blank">The Guardian Newspaper Datastore Flickr Group </a>showcases data visualisations drawn from the Guardian Newspaper&#8217;s database.</li>
