For something more abstract and "pretty":

I've used gource[0] in the past to visualise the growth of a product to org members outside of tech.

One particular success story for was contributing to a presentation showing how the tech dept had made a success of expansion. It got some audible "ooo"s like a fireworks display does

Gource is great indeed, it can be really mesmerising watching projects with long histories.

To add a couple of "pretty" alternatives (full disclosure: both mine):

- Repography[0] makes posters from the same data, with a few different designs

- Work/Artwork[1] is the same concept but even more abstract

Very nice!
