Beth Dichter's insight:
This post from Mark Gleeson provides a great overview of Meograph, a fairly new Web 2.0 tool that allows you tell stories using images/videos, text, maps and a timeline, or as Gleeson states the "who/what, when, and where." In addition Gleeson takes the time to describe how to use the tool in words as well as a video, and also discusses some of the issues that he experienced. The Meograph website is geared to journalism and education. The education section states that the benefits of the site include "making learning fun with interactive content, easy for students to create their own projects, and perfect for history, literature and more." To go directly to the education site click http://www.meograph.com/education.

What steps can one take to make an infographic more interactive? How about creating one that will allow the users to interact with data? This post explores this concept, providing information on four tools that will help with the process. Learn more about:
* StatSilk and StatTrend are both put out by the same company. It appears that they offer some free software and some paid software. Both of these were free at the time I checked.
* Many Eyes is a free tool that IBM provides.
* Google Public Data allows you to use data from Google or upload your own and create interactive content.
Have fun exploring the options!
