This repository is a store for all materials associated with the General Assembly class Data Visualization for Businesses.
If you are a member of one of the classes, I am going to maintain this page indefinitely. I hope that you find it a hepful reference in the future.
This is a big class and I want to make sure you get value out of it. If there are questions that you have that I could not address in class, please contact me at the email I shared in the presentation, or DM me on twitter.
In class, I gave examples of two interactive visualizations, one on the US banking system using d3, and one on startup revenue using the Google Viz API. You can see either using the links above: the codebases are here (d3) and here (Google Viz). I also mentioned my class at CUNY which you may want to check out if you're interested in learning more.
Dave McClure's influential ARRR blog post is here.
I also point you to the SEC filings site. Look for S-1s and 10-Ks!
There are lots of good resources on Visualization. I pointed you to four of the experts: here are quick links to books or online resources of each.

If you want to dig more into the Twitter data here's the S-1 and here's the spreadsheet. If you don't like google docs, there's a spreadsheet above.
The sample real-time data is at http://bit.ly/15IaSq4. It's a little (ok, a lot) hack-y and only runs for 5min(ish) at a time due to google rules about long-running macros. It's really just for a simple example.
