I think most of these are extremely poor. They can only be interpreted in many cases if you already understand the data, such as by reading the table first.

- t-writescode 2y agoI believe that's actually the point! Choosing the right way to display information is a skill all on its own!
- blueboo 2y agoSure, but it’d be a lot more interesting and challenging to build a 100 visualizations where each gives a unique insight of the same dataset. An isometric 3d bar chart is just going through the motions. Next, 1 essay, 100 fonts!…
- fifilura 2y agoSee this as a form of brainstorming. Next session is about ranking and discarding.
- sam_goody 2y agoFrom my POV this is worth bookmarking - there are many datasets that are much clearer with one chart type or another - having 100 styles with the same data will later offer a visual index to help me decide what will best serve my needs.
- dre85 2y agoMy thoughts exactly! At least half of these are chart types that I've never seen before or at least would never think of using so having this reference is awesome.
- ijidak 2y agoAgree 1000%! On that note, I'm looking for an Encyclopedia of Visualizations. Something like this, but even more comprehensive. I don't want fluff words. Just a visualization reference. For each visualization I would want, at a minimum, an Example and the Name (and any alternative names). Print would be awesome. So that I can flip through visualizations. But, a website would be even better. Aware of anything like this?
