Those are some Lovely Charts you’ve got there
February 17, 2009
When making diagrams the old fashioned way, if you’re not careful you can ugly up what should be a simple process. White boards and paper easels fill up quickly, and the combination of bad handwriting and thick markers can obfuscate the simplest ideas. And heaven help you if you try to create a diagram in Excel. If you use Lovely Charts, however, you can create clean, clear charts and diagrams that can easily communicate a process or idea.
You or your students can use Lovely charts to show the family tree of characters in a novel, divvy up responsibilities for a class project, or even just put together a seating chart. The drag-and-drop functionality makes it easy to create, arrange and edit symbols and labels on your chart, which makes it more likely that if you look at your chart tomorrow, it’ll still make sense to you.
On their website, Lovely Charts claims,”Lovely Charts is easy…And sexy!” I wouldn’t go so far as to call a diagramming program sexy. It is free, however, which is pretty attractive to a cheapskate like me. Lovely charts gives you a nice-looking way to share your ideas. -BILL FERRIS
