Most people interested in visualization have made a chart with Microsoft Excel. For your basic charts, it’s really easy, and it works well for what it was intended for. The process of visualizing data with methods beyond the standard chart types can be more challenging at times.

If you’re trying to learn how to work with data, make time to fiddle with the toys in your growing toolbox. Otherwise, you just have a bunch of bookmarks and no new skills.
