I know that data visualistion facilities are not the primary raison
d'etre for Exhibit, but they are a very important carrot to get people
to use Exhibit on that long tail of semantically unorganised data out there.

Most people in the sciences are fairly familiar with the usual visual
displays for categorical or facetted data, but can I recommend Michael
Friendly's Web site as a resource for some less familiar ways of
visualising such information? See
http://www.math.yorku.ca/SCS/friendly.html and also his visualisation
gallery at http://www.math.yorku.ca/SCS/Gallery/

Well worth an hour or so of browsing.
