Pretty Pictures Can Make All the Difference

From a recent JEP paper: "Once upon a time, a picture was worth a thousand words. But with online news, blogs, and social media, a good picture can now be worth so much more. Economists who want to disseminate their research, both inside and outside the seminar room, should invest some time in thinking about how to construct compelling and effective graphics."

My thoughts: People will forget the details of your talk/paper, but they will remember really cool pictures.
