I'm coming back to this conversation after months because I just came across @nancyduarte.bsky.social's framing of explanatory as a step further from exploratory, adding value really. I personally feel this disregards the work of exploratory viz, but I'm curious to hear what other folks think 📊
This is so cool! I'm curious as to why you decided to group them by months (both in the big viz and at the bottom). Is that something you're particularly interested in?
What baffles me is how they're such selective "Christians". Christianity is precisely the *opposite* of what he's doing
¿Qué libros sobre #dataviz existen en español, para introducir a nuevas personas en el campo? A @albertocairo.com le escuché nombrar "La esquemática" de Joan Costa. ¿Cuáles más hay?

From Christian saints to folk and pagan traditions, gift-bringers vary widely across Europe, and Father Christmas isn’t the only one delivering presents.
In Eastern Europe, it's often Grandfather Frost (Ded Moroz), a jolly, bearded figure clad in a long coat.
Santa nailed it this year! 🎅
I won one of @katgreenbrook.bsky.social's 12 Days of Christmas giveaways and got The Data Storyteller’s Handbook + Chart Spark by @allitorban.bsky.social. Perfect summer reading! 🎁 Huge thanks to Kat & Alli for this thoughtful gift.
I hope everyone had a lovely Xmas 🎄

Mom, I made it!
Last week I graduated from my master's degree in Narrative Futures: Art, Data, Society at The University of Edinburgh. Words cannot describe the excitement and gratefulness for all the support I've received along the way.
This is so cool! Fun, easy to use and aesthetically beautiful. 👏👏

Just signed up to be part of the live audience for next week.
So excited to hear what these amazing speakers will have to say about the present and future of #dataviz 📊
Europe’s story isn’t just told in headlines - it’s in the data.
"Europe, visualised" breaks down 33 key trends that define our continent. From migration patterns to societal shifts, this book offers a unique, journalistic approach to understanding Europe.
India's density is mind-blowing 🤯
Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.
Advice worth including on the first page of every data viz textbook?
"A clever #dataviz that presents information its audience doesn't care about in a way they can't understand is useless."
Not bad for my first time, I guess

Sorry for my ignorance, but what do you mean by "the absence of an algorithm"? How does the "Discover" tab work then?

Interesting! This is a simple search for Uruguay and Costa Rica 😜. There's been a clear rise, although sometimes it's hard to grasp the magnitude because of how Google trends' public data works.
But it's definitely also on the rise!

Hello Bsky 🦋👋. Today , I made this chart 📊 for The European Correspondent, showing the boom we're seeing over on this side.
I used Google Trends data, but I'm curious to know what other public sources you would've used to show this increase in popularity
