Sehr spannender Vortrag von Hendrik Lehmann @tagesspiegel (#Tagesspiegel) zu #DigitalJournalism. Techniken interaktiver Erzählungen über Daten kann man eigentlich auch in der #DigitalHistory anwenden - etwa in #DataStories. #DigHis23 #DH

This week we continue our series of highlights of some of the #GovTech data services we run for the UK public sector.

I enjoyed the recent episode of #dataStories Formalizing Design with Gabrielle Mérite and Alan Wilson hosted by @moritz
https://podcastaddict.com/episode/154271571

It was fascinating to listen to their discussion on #designsystems , but what resonated most with me was the last part where Moritz stated how most #webdesign looks the same nowadays.

Of course that makes new websites easier to navigate, because they all have the same structure and style.

But it's also a bit boring.

What do you think?

this little #javascript lib was surprisingly good at extracting tables from a pdf https://ronnywang.github.io/pdf-table-extractor/ where tabula couldn't sort ot the multiline nature of the cells #datastories

How doggy is your name?

"How common are dogs with human names? To find out, we explored the names of 61,000 dogs available for adoption on the website Petfinder, and compared them with baby names in Social Security Administration records stretching back to 1880."

This is a great little bit of data exploration. And from an #SEO perspective, these are the types of #DataStories that earn links in droves.
