I'm looking for examples of smart *color keys/legends* for my next article. They're a small detail in a #dataviz, but so important for readability. Show me your favs!
I'm especially interested in interactive color keys that show the distribution of the data – do you know any?

@theneilrichards @beyond_wrds @parkrunUK @southwarkpark I like the way you reversed the axis on this. Feels more intuitive to have the faster runners on the right

@beyond_wrds @parkrunUK @southwarkpark Nice! I did my own @parkrunUK beeswarm a few years ago (the passing of time means I'm a different age category these days too). I don't think I would have threatened any of the @beyond_wrds team though, you'd all have been in the post-run cafe by the time I made it over the line!

A few of our data team are @ParkrunUK fanatics. So when Saturday’s 5km #Parkrun @Southwarkpark ended in a photo finish, naturally they made a #DataViz to settle the debate. #LoveParkrun

@MarkConnolly2 I wondered what that line meant. Can you explain to someone who knows next to nothing about baseball?

Five charts that changed the world, a short BBC and @royalsociety video on data visualisation, which I narrated, and also features some of my work on #eugenics and the Kallikak Family.

@dataunjaded @MarkBradbourne @tableaupublic If you wanted a fun example to share I used it for this Squid Game Viz last year: public.tableau.com/views/SquidGam…

@MarkBradbourne @tableaupublic I gotcha. And that makes sense. I’m working with a group of end users who are new to Tableau and wanted a way to showcase what’s possible! This is super helpful!

Hey #datadam do you know of or have any best practice examples of a Tableau Story (not a dashboard) on @tableaupublic? Wanting to show the capabilities on a interactive version rather than just screenshots.

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be joining the fabulous BI team at @IntegralUKLtd at the end of March as a Lead Business Intelligence Analyst.
I can’t wait to work with the amazing team including @ellaworsdale & @finkledeb & be part of the @JLL #datafam!

@Tableau developers, is there a standard size you use for your dashboards? Mine is typically 1400 x 800. What about you?

@MitchellSt Queen was my first guess today. I just choose the first word that pops into my head

Have you ever heard of a Lexis Diagram? Here is my attempt to demystify the chart type for this month's #SWDChallenge (it is best viewed on desktop). Tableau Public link: tabsoft.co/3q3LiKP

@storywithdata Well I did this month’s #SWDChallenge earlier! Now easing into the weekend by watching cricket. Love the dog by the way!
