These are Tableau technique and application videos that supplement my Tableau training course.
I had a feeling I could use Tableau to make an image and blog viewer that was dynamic and fully functional, but I wasn’t quite sure how to do it. Well, today, I revisited the concept and accomplished the task.
I really like weather data. I also really hate inaccurate weather data. If you have an Acurite Weather Station at your house, you might want to be wary of the data it is collecting.

By writing this blog, I was simply pursuing my passions. I allowed the blog to meander across topics because my passion is widespread. I wrote about techniques in math, science, Tableau and Alteryx. I solved problems and I shared stories. I met many new friends. I got better in the field of analytics because I connected to a wide group of really talented people. I loved that experience and as I now know, I was driven to learn. It was fantastic journey that included 1/8 of a million blog hits and one that I will always be glad that I took.
I usually do not write articles based on the work of someone else, but with over 5 centuries of data served up on a platter, I couldn’t resist and I thought the topic was interesting. With only 1 article left in the 3danim8 blog experiment, I decided to sneak another one in before the end is here.
