Content seemed extremely sparse but then realized it wasn't rendering in chrome correctly (17.0.963.56). Don't know if its just me... anyhow, jumped over to firefox and it worked fine.


I forgot to include both weights of the Yanone Kaffeesatz web font (400 and 700), which was causing rendering problems on some browsers. Try it again now? Sorry for the inconvenience.


Sorry, still the same prob (cleared caches etc): http://i.imgur.com/eFayp.png


Hmm I'm running 17.0.963.65 on 10.6 and seems to work fine.


Yeah, text that is white (like the big links on bottom of many of the slides), just don't show up unless I fiddle around with the css. Nevermind, I don't want to sidetrack the conversation here if its working fine for others.


I can confirm it also happened for me while using Chrome (17.0.963.56)


Nice introduction! I've been playing with d3.js recently and really, really enjoy it. I love the great support for scales, interpolations, etc--it really seems to simplify building visualizations.


Keep going until you get to some slides with interactive graphs. This is a neat concept and it could be great for putting together a tutorial.


Crashes Safari on my iPhone, somewhat surprisingly.


The cause of the instability appears to be the box-shadow (or possibly the -webkit-transform) on all 151 slides. I've disabled those features for iOS now, and it appears to be stable.


Thanks! All things being equal, d3 is _amazing_, by the way. I used it (with some difficulty) last year for internal reporting tools. I'm looking forward to grokking this slideshow.


Love this. This is the way slide should be displayed. Thanks for making it easy to learn something new.


Great introduction. I would love to see this as a PDF for easy reference.
