Animated charts are the <blink>/<marquee> tags of #DataScience. Eye-catching, but ineffective at conveying complex information.

Thanks to @RogerBivand for having me to talk to his @nhhnor "Business Analytics" students for an hour over @appear.in -- that was fun, and I hope I didn't scare anybody away from participating in @OpenSourceOrg /cc to some of things mentioned @Debian @_R_Foundation @QuantLib

Congratulations to the @WUSTL Women's Club Soccer team for a third consecutive @NIRSARegionIV title with four wins and 12 goals at the Tulsa tournament--nice way to cap off another all-win season. And a nice post-tourney picture with Anna flashing her infectious smile :)

Interesting times we live in. @TheEconomist points out Open Souce as the net winner in the @IBM / @RedHat dance. If you have been around open source / linux since the 90s (esp. within finance / trading) then that is some sweet vindication. Open Source wins. It's that easy.
