- Illustrators
- Programmers
- Statisticians
However powerful our statistical languages, we're still far from the code that drives the Internet. A few websites of our online friends provide javascript code for very neat graphical output.
- Google Chart Tools: you must love the investment Google does in products that won't bring money in the short run. Very good graphics, intuitive syntax. There is even this playground.
- Fusion charts: it's free for schools and it does charts... but kind of an overload to me
- Highcharts: didn't really bother, yet the graphs look good
All in all, I believe these programmer tools are pretty useless for now. For instance, I manage to make a geochart with the Google syntax, but it's not possible to display city names unless you hover over the dots. Nice online, but not what we'd print out. Too bad, as Google's simplicity and respect for the ISO country codes is what we need.
