In my opinion it depends on the case, and i do not think too much interactive things are helpful. Take the above visualization for example, the author only give four choices: 1960, 1980, 2000, 2014. Also, the data visualization has animations when user switch years. The animation plays an important role in this visualization because we can see and compare the amount changes between different majors. I find it super fun to play with this data visualization even though it has four choices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">So, my conclusion is, as long as the interactive data visualization can give use an idea about the difference between selections, it is a good visualization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Also, I found an article about how to make interactive data visualization successful. Maybe I will table about it int the next blog post.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/benkerschberg\/2014\/04\/30\/five-key-properties-of-interactive-data-visualization\/#eb593ab44eb0\">http:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/benkerschberg\/2014\/04\/30\/five-key-properties-of-interactive-data-visualization\/#eb593ab44eb0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following data visualization has four buttons for audiences to select different years: https:\/\/flowingdata.com\/2016\/06\/28\/distributions-of-annual-income\/ Last lecture we talk about the if we need to use interactive data visualization to make our point.
