Since our launch in 2019, we always planned to have a stand-alone website and create a platform to serve the needs of our dataviz community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/i9x_eV2QYGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">announcing at Outlier<\/a> that we were leaving Medium and that we were starting a print version of <em>Nightingale<\/em>, we put out a call for volunteers to get involved and received an overwhelming response. Since then, a core team of nearly 30 folks have dedicated countless lunches, evenings, and weekends across a range of time zones to launch the new site. Now we have three teams focused on editorial, design, and operations (check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/dvsnightingale.wpenginepowered.com\/about-nightingale-3\/our-team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">team<\/a> page.)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, we are now <span class=\"has-inline-color has-sm-color-tertiary-color\"><strong>FREE<\/strong><\/span>! Yes, all our articles on this site are <span class=\"has-inline-color has-sm-color-tertiary-color\"><strong>free<\/strong><\/span> and open to anyone to read. There is no more paywall, and we will leave most of our old articles up on Medium as an archive. All DVS members have access to the Medium links on the DVS slack and we might just port over many articles to the new site per the desires of our writers (they have the last word).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While our push over the past few months has been mainly operational, we are also <span class=\"has-inline-color has-sm-color-tertiary-color\">free<\/span> to shift into a more design and editorial focus moving forward. Not only will we bring in a new creative director in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/datacitron\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Julie Brunet<\/a> \/ Data Citron to help our brand evolve, but we also welcome <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cesantoro.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Claire Santoro<\/a> to help us organize sections and alternative content forms. In the next few weeks, you\u2019ll begin to see how this evolution in the content will continue to diversify our discourse, extending into spotlights and more content for children and education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, we\u2019ve organized the site into three pillars:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Dataviz discourse and topical discussion<\/li><li>Practical applications and how-tos<\/li><li>Community spotlights that feature accomplishments like books, webinars, podcasts, exhibits, and cool projects<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The new site also allows us added flexibility, which we\u2019re embracing to introduce new short-form and image-rich content like Heather Jones\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/dvsnightingale.wpenginepowered.com\/the-circle-of-life-in-all-its-bizarre-and-cruel-glory\/\">cicada piece<\/a> and fast takes like our <a href=\"https:\/\/dvsnightingale.wpenginepowered.com\/tag\/3-questions-with\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">3 Questions With<\/a> features. Stay tuned for all kinds of fun stuff like trivia, quizzes, horror stories, how it started\/how it\u2019s going, and more! And, if you have ideas for content you want to see, <a href=\"mailto:nightingale@datavisualizationsociety.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">let us know!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also &#8211; we are SUPER excited to introduce a new section: <strong>Kids Dataviz<\/strong>! Designed to showcase fun, creativity, and engagement, we kicked off this series last week with <a href=\"https:\/\/dvsnightingale.wpenginepowered.com\/data-visualization-for-kids\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Julia Krolik\u2019s article<\/a> in collaboration with her son. This is a topic the editorial committee is extremely jazzed about and we see so many amazing opportunities to explore more! What about comics? Treasure hunts? Coloring books? We are building a dedicated team for this now, but we want you to get involved, so email us for details.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many questions about <em>Nightingale Magazine<\/em> (that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re calling our print version) &#8211; and you can <a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/nightingale\/the-future-of-nightingale-628dca6e2d48?source=friends_link&amp;sk=ae952f015229128be2e390a3a90341ba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">read more about our vision<\/a> &#8211; but, we will be following up with more explicit details when we open up our subscription service in the coming weeks. We see this as an important opportunity to expand beyond our professional \u201cbubble\u201d and plan to launch our first issue later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dvsnightingale.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3-1024x576.jpg?resize=639%2C359&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5458\" width=\"639\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=1536%2C864&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=450%2C253&amp;ssl=1 450w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=1422%2C800&amp;ssl=1 1422w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=1360%2C765&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=800%2C450&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=250%2C141&amp;ssl=1 250w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=550%2C309&amp;ssl=1 550w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=320%2C180&amp;ssl=1 320w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=533%2C300&amp;ssl=1 533w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?resize=889%2C500&amp;ssl=1 889w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nightingaledvs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/3.jpg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\" \/><figcaption>A page from our <a href=\"https:\/\/dvsnightingale.wpenginepowered.com\/sponsorship\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Media kit<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, because <em>Nightingale<\/em> is <span class=\"has-inline-color has-sm-color-tertiary-color\"><strong>free<\/strong><\/span> of the Medium paywall, we are also <span class=\"has-inline-color has-sm-color-tertiary-color\"><strong>free<\/strong><\/span> to find and collaborate with Sponsors. <strong>Please consider helping us find sponsors willing to invest in the important work of sustaining this community resource.<\/strong> Our readership represents an extremely unique cross-section of people who care deeply about dataviz.
