A few weeks ago, I left Dan Roam a comment where I wished someone would visually map out the credit crisis. Lo and behold, he has obliged by pulling together a number of efforts by folks to convey the financial mess in pictures. One of the gems he found is the slideshow above by Johannes Bhakdi
In another example dan cites a video of Paddy Hirsch in front of a white board explaining “naked short selling” saying: “He gives the best example in years of how a simple picture drawn live becomes the most effective communication tool ever devised.”
To find links to all the visual explanations of our financial implosion, check out Dan’s Post.

Hey Jonny,
thanks for posting my presentation! btw - I am Johannes Bhakdi, not Bhakfi - slideshare made a mistake and it’s hard to change…
I am bulilding a community around visual knowledge development - maybe a facebook group or slideshare community, or something on Klatcher - what’s your idea about that?
Thanks
Johannes

Hey Johannes. I haven’t used Klatcher. Somehow FaceBook groups don’t seem to foster much community interaction. You could start a community at ning.com, or a blog with a forum seems to work pretty well for some people. You can check out waltribeiro.com to see how he does it. Ning is nice because people can embed images and videos and slideshows.
