Best of the Tableau Web... April 2015

The Tableau bloggers have been busy this month from writing about wide range of topics, from Tableau 9.0 to New York Real Estate.

April was a busy month all around. We launched Tableau 9.0, and our community went promptly to work, exploring all the new features. Of course, there were also a number of great vizzes, including this one depicting New York’s real estate market by Peter Gilks.

Check out the awesome links below, including the “Tableau Wannabe Podcast” interview with our CEO, Christian Chabot.
