Hi all,
I wrote an app to download bitly click stats on all my bundles. I've blogged about it here. From there, there's a link to the code on github, too. It was fun to learn python in order to do this project! let me know if you have any thoughts or comments or ideas.
Andy,
Please remove the color gradient on treemap, i will suggest you to choose a nice green color, it's too much orange on viz.
Maybe a column bar treemap could be a second option, divided by continents.
Regards,
Cristian.

Thanks Christian. I chose orange because it's the same orange as the bitly logo! To be honest, I know it's not the most attractive dashboard i've ever made. However, in this case, I actually made this dashboard for my own personal analytics and use - in which case, aesthetic choices become less important. Your suggestions for change are useful; in this case, I'm sticking with orange but the charts themselves don't sing, I agree.
Andy,
Thank you for feedback, it's a matter of taste at the end of the day. Orange is a very nice color, very strong and positive.
I am sure that you are aware of Cynthia Brewer color palette schemes so i post the info for further readers.
Regards,
Cristian
