Nick Rabinowitz is an Internet and information management consultant with a focus on non-profit organizations. A graduate of the Master's program at the UC Berkeley School of Information, my work covers a broad range of topics, including disaster response systems, user research, and visualization, that build on over 10 years experience working with web technologies. Recent work includes timemap.js and an information management project with UN OCHA. I am currently on a long-term consulting contract with the Women's Funding Network.
I spoke at a panel on geotemporal visualization at SXSW Interactive 2011 - you might be interested in checking out my slides.
Timemap.js is an Open Source Javascript library I wrote to help create maps and timelines that work together.
