Nice dashboard :) Out of curiosity, where did you get the data re: who is furloughed from which departments? I have been working on a similar data graphic but had to collect that data in a Google Doc by hand with a couple colleagues from the OMB's list of contingency plans. I'd be curious to compare my data with yours.

FWIW I'm working on visualizing it with a treemap instead of bar charts - my progress is here but still has lots of design work left to do:

I've got to ask one of the other guys where he got the data. It's available via json in our project here: https://github.com/dvito/govuptime

Thanks! If anyone is interested in my data, there's a CSV & JSON in the github and the shared Google Doc is here:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AsyXWqYXia4PdGl...

Looks pretty similar to yours, mostly... Mine is less-complete at the moment but also tries to break some agencies down by sub-agency (eg. IRS-specific stats within the Dept. of Treasury). If anyone would like to contribute, let me know and I'll make you an editor on that doc (my email is in my HN profile or on that github project).

I talked to dvito, he said he compiled it by hand, so he might incorporate your data into ours.

Thanks for the data. Any idea where to get $ of salary not being paid to each department.

I think the only source for that data would be through the OMB, but I'm not sure where you could find it.
