In iA Presenter, you can now turn tables into charts with one click. Charts are tables.
Had a great time giving the talk on Madness and Imagination this morning at Beyond Tellerrand #btconf. Here are the slides (raw unedited). I'm on the way to Berlin right now. Will be back tomorrow. https://sharing.ia.net/presenter/b541d9ee82f24318a025b3a1a2f97d67/view
Madness and Imagination

Madness and Imagination Dare to Know, Dare to Imagine, Dare to Make

„You have to be ready to be perceived as mad. That is the deal.“
Thanks for that @reichenstein #btconf
iA Presenter now lets you write charts. To make it easy, we had to completely redesign the UI for markdown tables: https://ia.net/topics/charts-and-tables

"Our current setup fits our needs so well that I want to rub my eyes every time I open it." - Oliver Reichenstein @reichenstein

We’re really glad that working with Kirby has been such a positive experience for Information Architects! @ia

After 20 years on the web and carefully reviewing all the options, iA.net switched to Kirby. This decision came from a team with very high standards for design and usability, as well as a distinct approach to organising information.

Get amazed.

Madness and Imagination

We all have reason to get mad about how universally ugly, dumb, and badly made things are around us. And while many of us are angry enough to take things into our own hands, unfortunately, making things better is not for everyone. It takes more than frustration, anger, and rage against the machine, it more than money, skill, and brains, to do things differently. It takes imagination.
