What’s Going On on GraphJam?

Hey Graphers,

We’ve added some new features to the site to help making and submitting easier, among many other things. Here’s a list!

Major Changes:

1) Introducing the Graph Builder: With our Graph Builder, creating a graph is easier than evar! We’ve made creating a graph as easy as clicking and dragging. There’s no need to download files and muddle through the Excel graphing functions anymore.

2) Direct Submissions of Images, Files and Videos: We’ve been running quite a backlog of Excel files for the past few months. We want to get your submissions in front of voters as quickly as possible. So we’ve introduced the Upload page.

3) Cheezburger Account Enabled: Want to keep track of your submissions? Save graphs as a Favorite? You can use your Cheezburger account to keep track of your submissions and favorites on GraphJam.

4) Save a Graph as a Favorite: Next week, you’ll see graphs that display the brown “Add To Favorites” button. Sign up for a Cheezburger account, and you’ll be able to add Graphs to your account and create your own collection.

5) The Upcoming Page: Need more graphs in your life? The most highly voted graphs will be published to the Upcoming page.

6) New Features for Digg Users: We added a recently dugg section at the end of each page. We’re also beta testing a new DiggThis feature from Digg that’s designed to speed up page load times.

Cheers,
The GraphJam Advancement and/or Improvement Committee

We’re still in the process of performing some upgrades and adding new features to GraphJam. If there’s some weird stuff going on, we apologize for the b0rkedness of the site right now. But it will be back to normal soon.

Known issues (we’re working on it):
- Upcoming page is rendering incorrectly
- Add To Favorite button appears on graphs you cannot add to favorites
