On an earlier post, there were a lot of comments about this particular aspect and I agree we could do better in helping users accomplish this goal. I also looked at blogs and publications which were known to produce professional looking charts to determine what the salient aspects were. As I researched this further I found there were a lot of remarks on the web that pertained to Excel 2003 charting so I thought it would be worthwhile to share what I found; specifically what changes you can make to a default chart in Excel 2007 to make it more professional looking.

Today Google released a new feature for Google Spreadsheets that gives users some very powerful data visualization capabilities. Considering the multitude of different ways people use Google Spreadsheets, Google couldn't possibly create unique, tailored visualization tools for everything, so they decided to open it up and let both users and developers leverage the Google Gadget platform.

One of the most requested features for Google Spreadsheets is pivot tables -- Google still hasn't delivered their own solution to this problem, but one of the early adopters who started developing with this new Visualization API has done the hard work for them. Google is effectively hiring developers from around the globe to do their dirty work, for nothing.
