At 10:30am on November 2, 2008, Mr Tulsi Datta said…: you are doing an excellent job! no newspapers, excepting a very few us newspapers, have done so exceedingly well in the use of infographics as you have done in the kerala kaumudi. here in calcutta, a very fews papers (telegraph, times of india, anandabazar) do ever think of using infographics.
in classes, when i discuss about the use of infographics in newspapers, i show the students your work. and they really appreciate.
thanks.
