The blog format really doesn't do the topic justice. If I had time, I'd create a collaborative interactive multimedia time line. I am not an economist. I'm a school psychologist who took an information visualization class this year. I realized I needed to become better-informed about economics, and thought it would help if I shared what I've learned along the way. Thanks for all the work you've done with your visualizations! Lynn Catherine,
