New stamen.com, and hi Medium!

Well, it’s been a lovely 8 years, 10 months, and 3 days blogging at content.stamen.com, but as of today we’re switching over to publishing on Medium at hi.stamen.com. 3224 days is a long time and the web has (obviously) evolved tremendously since then, so we’re happy to dive head first, again! into a new way of telling stories. Look for contributions from many Stamens here.

I’m also thrilled to announce a complete overhaul of stamen.com. It’s literally the hardest thing for a web design company to do: redesign its own web presence. The cobbler’s children have no shoes, as the saying goes.


I hope you’ll take some time to look around at some of the new work, new faces and more clearly defined capabilities of our busy studio. Our chosen field of online mapping and data visualization is going through what some call a boom. I think it’s more than that; I think we’re still at the very beginning of a revolution in how we make sense of the world using visualization. It’s our vision to bring experts and lay people alike into conversation about data and the world.

See you on the front lines!
