On week 13, we talked about how to enhance Web sites using data charts and maps. We were exposed to Fusion Charts, a site that enables you to create flash charts and graphs for free, and then allows you to publish them on your Web sites.
So I just made a bar graph for my final project using Fusion Charts. At first, it was hard for me to follow the instructions, but after several trial and errors, I was so impressed at how easy and quick it was to make a fancy looking info chart that could enhance the design and quality of your Web sites. More interesting is the fact that this service was free.
It made me think about how many useful and free features the Internet has that we don’t really know about. I don’t think a lot of people know about Fusion Charts and I am glad that I was one of the few who were exposed to it and who have used it.
Hey, Eisa, that link goes to your Soundslides, but where is the link for your Final Story package?
Hi
This post was meant to be for week 13’s class.
I realized the post was not very clear, so I just edited it.
Thanks
Good job, makes sense now.
hi eisa,
nice idea to make sites graphic rich. recently i came across a free silverlight chart control from visifire . i used the chart designer tool in their site to create my charts in minutes. it generates the html code which can be embedded in web page.
