Best of the Tableau Web: July 2013
A highlight of tips, tricks, and inspiration for Tableau and data visualization.
It's been a great month and I am seeing plenty of new Tableau blogs appearing. Keep up the great work! Bloggers help our community and help Tableau understand what is working well, and not so well, with the product. Keep up the great work!
