Cope and Drag — CnD — Lightweight Diagraming Language wins awards

“CnD’s design is driven by cognitive science principles that influence spatial reasoning, visualization, and diagramming. It combines this with a bottom-up analysis that distills patterns from dozens of actual custom visualizations, and finds the two come together nicely. The resulting language is small, uses minimal notation, and can be used incrementally.”
