30DayChartChallenge

Today is day one of the #30DayChartChallenge on Twitter!  Each week has a theme and each day a specific challenge.

Anyone can participate!  All you need to do is find some data and make a graph.  Here is what I posted today.  Would love to see representation from DataGraph users 🙂  If you are interested, please use @datagraphapp in your tweet.

This graphic shows large populations of Icelanders in counties other than Iceland, particularly Canada.  During the late 1800s there was a wave of Icelandic emigration that was the due to bad weather and resulting in food shortages.  Learn more about this topic at The Icelandic Emigration Center, Hofsós, #Iceland, http://hofsos.is/en/front-page/. Very informative museum to visit in N. Iceland!

Thanks!  I probably spent more time on this then I should have :). Might not be able to do this every day.

BTW – the best size for twitter is 1200 by 675.

In DataGraph, you can set the size in the Canvas settings to (1200,675).  Then output the graph as a png with 72 dpi to get the exact size for twitter.
