I learnt at the JMP Conference that many of you who are reading Junk Charts through an RSS feed are not aware of my sister blog, which discusses written (rather than visual) communications of statistical topics. So to clear up the confusion, there are in fact two separate RSS feeds:
To subscribe to Numbers Rule Your World (sister blog), click here
To subscribe to Junk Charts, click here
The Twitter feed combines both in one place, if that's what you want.
Hope you'll enjoy both blogs!



Hmmm... when I click 'here' (to access Numbers Rule your World) I am taken to bloglines which, of course, is closing. I'm not sure whether your link goes to bloglines or whether my preferences are taking me there.
I've looked around to see how I can specify Google Reader as my default subscriber service, but can't see how. Grateful for any assistance. I'm using Firefox.

Gillian: When I click on the link in Firefox, I see a section at the top of the page where there is a pull-down menu to allow you to choose an application with which to subscribe. Do you see something like that?
If not, what you can do is to right click and copy the link location. Then go into the RSS reader and paste the link as a new RSS feed. I don't use Google Reader so I don't know exactly where to paste this. Perhaps other readers who use Google Reader can help...

I heard of this actually, and it has been a talk of business owners recently.

You are overwriting the "stories" array every time you parse the XML (I assume that you are using the stores array in your tableview datasource).

dear sir:
some time ago, I think you suggested, how about a chart you like ?
Figure 5 here
http://mungowitzend.blogspot.com/2013/05/breaking-down-higher-ed-wage-premium.html
which is taken from another source (indicated)
I like this cause it is a great chart, in terms of info, but could clearly use some improvement - that is, this is one of those rare charts whoose message is important enough that it is worth editing.
