Thanks for the great article. Having just finished Tufte's book on Visualizing Quantitative Information, I couldn't help but comment on the graphic. It could be more informative if the "height" of the slice of pie corresponded to the average deal size. This is important in comparing deals, and making the otherwise "3-d" dimension of height meaningful would help for future versions. =Drew Hession-Kunz Entrepreneur and Teacher Boston College- VC and Business Creation i-Nalysis - Founder and President Very good news- people need to get a grip on the reality that business is still getting done, investments are still happening.
