Re:The lost art of Nomography by sophacles on Tuesday September 13, 2011 @01:02PM (#2992316)
These could be really useful to include in spec sheets for various solid state electronics components. They always include graphs of current and voltage characteristics, but perhaps including a nomogram instead (or as well) could help people understand the properties of the component.

They also could be really helpful to teach graphic learners about how certain relationships work -- I am certain I would have understood many concepts much faster with one of these -- particularly in physics.
