I decided to make a graph. I like graphs. Even when they have only a couple of data points. 
Continuing from yesterday’s post, here’s what I saw this morning.

Haha. Awesome. I love graphs.
This post where a designer replies to a request for a logo design with charts and graphs is pretty hilarious: http://www.27bslash6.com/p2p.html

Funny… I’ve seen that post… very good stuff. He loves his pie graphs.
I make graphs for tons of stuff. My wife makes fun of me, but seeing a visual representation of data is a good motivator for me.

Wow – cool graph. I’ll be curious to see where it goes and if the apparent correlation continues. I wonder if we’ll see an inverse correlation above, say, 30°C.

I think it’s something that will go up as time goes on… but I bet a lot of cyclists aren’t biking yet “because it’s March”, even though the weather is nice.
It increased 7 degrees between my commute yesterday to today (-1 to 6), but I think we’d see far bigger jumps in other 7 degree increases (ie. 5 to 13, or 13 to 20).
I’m thinking how I can get weather conditions into the graph too.

Hmm.. a 7 degree rise over one day, boy this is going to be a hot summer. ;]
