The NNDB (Notable Names Database) provides a well organized "fact sheet" about Supreme Court Nominee Elena Kagan.
We've been using this little known but very useful database for a couple of years and while it's not perfect (eg, in many cases more current pictures would be useful), we think it does a solid job and offers some useful visualizations (aka NNDB Maps) between people, companies, organizations. Here's Kagan's "NNDB Map." More on NNDB and maps in a second post in the next day or two.
