Interactive graphics

Interactive graphics, like most things in life, have their pros and cons. They can delivery necessary information, but they can also overwhelm the reader/viewer.

Graphics are like cliffnote version of the article and I suppose that's ok. Not too many people have time to read the entire people. Many just have time to look at an interactive graphic. Writers should not be offended.

The graphics do need to be kept simple. No point in trying to make the readers head spin.

Overall, interactive graphics add a lot to stories.
