Sinan Aral ha presentado en HBR una muestra de lo que están trabajando en el departamento de I+D del New York Times. En el artículo "To Go from Big Data to Big Insight, Start with a Visual", lo explican con detalle y fantásticas visualizaciones.
¿Por qué lo hacen?
More importantly we are interested in how the word-of-mouth conversation drives readership, subscriptions, and ad revenue; how the Times can improve their own participation in the conversation to drive engagement; how we can identify truly influential readers who themselves drive engagement; and how the Times can then engage these influential users in a way that complements the users' own needs and interests.
What these visuals do help with is getting us to know where to look and what questions to ask of the data. That is, we can't build the more complex models until we know the most suitable places for building them. These visuals give us some of that insight.
Una fantástica muestra del enfoque en el análisis, para obtener resultados prácticos, y sobretodo rentables.
