[ddj] Federal budget visualisation

[Edmund Tadros]

Hi,

I thought the list might be interested in a visualisation my paper, the
Australian Financial Review, released overnight for the 2013-14 Australian
federal budget.

It was developed with input from several reporters with (literally) decades
of experience in reporting on budgets and a web design from Small Multiples
in Sydney.

The tool is designed to take key elements such as the budget balance, major
initiatives and revenue and expense measures and present the information in
a clear and intuitive visual format.

Would be interested in international feedback and suggestions.

Thanks,

Ed
