Hi,
Hello Spencer,
Karsten Loesing: I'm not really worried about server load. At least this hasn't been an issue with the current Metrics website.
Word.
There are indeed great visualizations out there
If you know of anyone dedicating their life to dataviz, please point, as it seems David McCandless is the only one going this hard, and I am always on the look out for some fresh illness.
Ah, I wasn't referring to anyone specifically. I'm also a fan of David McCandless' work and have his book on the shelf here. :) (Next to the wonderful books of Edward Tufte and the great ggplot2 book of Hadley Wickham.)
having to go back to the server for each change ... is really uncool.
I agree. However, given the challenges touched on so far, it seems that a reasonable resolution may be to select the data points and jump offline (or into some sandbox) and go to town on all kinds of combos.
Can you elaborate on that?
Not if we want to build tools for more than a handful of people. :)
It is unclear what you mean. Most devices can process the data, I presume, and usability is okay with using downloads in 'Work Offline' mode. I am not sure what issue you are referring to :(
Though I am all for the one-stop-shop, it seems that a feed of all the updated data upon request, to be processed at will, might be a nice way to do this :)
Food for thought.
It might well be that we're talking about different things. When you said offline I was thinking of somebody downloading a tool, like a Python script, to process data outside of the browser. That's what I meant by building tools for a handful of people. I think if it requires more than the browser, hardly anybody will use it.
But it seems you're talking about something different, right? Curious to learn more.
All the best, Karsten
Wordlife, Spencer
