A colleague in China has started an Excel blog in his native language. Liu Wanxiang’s blog is Excel Pro Chart Blog. The focus is on charting and analysis using Excel. I can’t actually read the blog, but it has referred its readers to a number of my pages lately, so it must at least be pretty good! If anyone can vouch for the Excel Pro Chart Blog’s quality, please add a comment below

Excel Pro is the most popular Excel chart evangelist blog as far as myself as a Chinese reader knows, and recommended by quite a few bloggers.

Unfortunately I didn’t deep dive into it but I may bring up some proper translation of his declaration post.

Very timely. I’ve been looking for bad visualizations to include in a presentation this week so the link to Michael Friendly’s site is a great help.

Excuse me…I’m going to go watch that Little Red Riding Hood movie again.

Tony – I think he’s cool; we’ve had a few email discussions. I tried using the Google translation service, and the result was a strange mix of technical and flowery text. I’m sure some technical and descriptive terms don’t make the jump reliably.

Jon – I too am linked to and get a lot of traffic from the Excel Pro Chart blog. It’s a little frustrating that I can’t read a single word on the blog. I have gotten a few comments from the writer and I think it’s legit.

Matt – How about The Three Pigs, showing structural information about their building materials, plus comparisons of lung capacity of wolves, pigs, and other selected mammals.

Love the Little Red Riding Hood animation! I can also imagine doing a similar concept with Goldilocks in which nutritional data were used to illustrate “too big,” “too small,” and “just right” in scientific terms!
