Visualizing 2020
To say that 2020 has been quite unusual would be an understatement. Years from now, we will come back to this year to analyze series of events as they unfolded and our distinct response to it. We will assess what worked, and what didn’t. Data, as always, will be at the heart of these investigations. This is my humble effort in trying to visualize data viz tweets that have been meticulously prepared by these talented Earthians throughout the year.

This is a nice way to visualise and discern patterns in the timing of Twitter posts. It's clear which accounts are automated and which are operated by humans. It also means #rstats' `ggplot2::coord_polar(...)` has utility beyond pie charts! pic.twitter.com/SWt1IEXJNM
