Spending hours manually updating your Excel dashboards and reports? Copying, pasting, reformatting... It's tedious, time-consuming, and leaves room for error. What if your key visuals updated automatically when the source data changes?

Excel has a powerful, often overlooked feature perfect for this: the Camera Tool!

It lets you create dynamic, linked visuals from different sheets onto one central summary page. https://youtu.be/25zHZOeBxyY

Is there a way to graph trending hashtags on mastodon/the Fediverse?

What I'm interested in is to graph say my local city of #Adelaide and use that as a bit of an indicator of if #Mastodon usage and engagemement is growing locally in my town

And yes im interested in data across the fediverse or at least across a few selected servers, as I want data beyond just a single instance.

I can see this on my desktop web interface right now.. so Im guessing there *should* be a way.

Using knowledge graphs for network correspondence analyses, a Finnish case study using their national Sampo-infrastructure as triple-store and SPARQL endpoint.

I'm saddened by the lack of reference to Prince's Purple Rain, but I do think Word Rains have potential when analysing corpora. Would be cool to have an interactive version integrated into a full-text search service!

In case you’re wondering what a #tradeUnion nerd does to alleviate boredom while off work with CFS, between sleeps/eats I’ve been kicking around various workforce stats, and making pictures with William Morris inspired colour palettes…

This is one of a series on the lines of “if the UK had 100 jobs”, which will help contextualise some of the spicier data sets I’m working on. 1974 is a pretty arbitrary reference year, but does show all 11 industrial classifications.
