Tufte Redux

Way back here I posted my review of design maven Edward Tufte's day long course. I mentioned sparklines, a kind of embedded-in-text graphics he talked about and said I would post examples. I intended at that time to scan in and post some examples he gave out, strangely enough of his proposal for using sparklines in stock/mutual fund tables. I decided there might be some copyright issues, so I won't post his, but I created a simple example of my own to illustrate his concept.



Basically, that's all there is to it. The idea really is to include graphics right in with the text--like smileys ;>)
