This is really cool. I'm a big fan of data visualization.

It's interesting how Microsoft is far away from the other tech companies.

Does anyone know what was used to create the plot given the data?



Primarily PIL (Python Imaging Library). This is the guy who wrote 'Programming Collective Intelligence'. How he creates such graphs is well documented in that book. If you haven't read it already, I'd whole heartedly recommend it.


Awesome thanks. I'm really interested in this stuff so as soon as I have some time I'll definitely give it a go.
