As we continue to digest the fruitful results of our kickoff workshop, one area of interest is which technologies our target audiences currently use and how that constructs their workflows. In one of our sessions we asked people to specifically enumerate the tools they use and so I thought it might be interesting to see the frequency with which various tools were mentioned. After isolating those names I generated the visualization at right using an online service called wordle.
Very cool, and very interesting. The diversity is mind-boggling. I’m really surprised that FileMaker does not feature more prominently.
I love Wordle! This is great. I’m surprised that Facebook is getting classified as a “tool” for research, communication, etc.
