Winter Pointers

As usual, the reading pointers below I borrowed from my Google+ microblogs “Data Visualization” (https://plus.google.com/111053008130113715119/posts , 7090+ followers) and “Data Visualization with Tableau” (https://plus.google.com/112388869729541404591/posts , almost 1000 followers). Again, sometimes the reading is more important then doing or writing.
