I knew it. When I saw the title with "D3" and "sexy" (or some other over-used overhyped adjective), I just knew it was going to involve some non-sensical clump of animated balls. This is far less useful than even a simple table.

If you're going to do balls in D3, at least do it with force:

You're right. The best visualizations wouldn't care about the library used to build them. By putting D3 in the title, it becomes obvious the authors care more about the technology than the content.
