Fun food visualization

I've been getting interested in doing data visualization stuff lately, and saw a link on a blog I read about data vis, and since it seemed neat, I figured I'd pass it along.


(Plus, I haven't posted in forever, and I know someone who posts like 6 times a day, so I need to be less slack about this).

Dear Sir,

I have the pleasure to brief on our Data Visualization software
"Trend Compass".

TC is a new concept in viewing statistics and trends in an animated
way by displaying 5 axis (X, Y, Time, Bubble size & Bubble color)
instead of just the traditional X and Y axis. It could be used in
analysis, research, presentation etc. In the banking sector, we have
Deutsche Bank New York as our client.

Customers for different branches over time ( all in 1 Chart) :

I hope you could evaluate it and give me your comments. So many ideas
are there.

You can download a trial version. It has a feature to export
EXE,PPS,HTML and AVI files. The most impressive is the AVI since you
can record Audio/Video for the charts you create.
