## Article

I recently had the chance to work with some [Airbnb data from Portland](http://insideairbnb.com/get-the-data.html). My main aim behind this visualisation was to use standard functionality, no tricks or loopholes but deliver a dashabord that simulated as much of the Airbnb experience as I could. It’s not 100% but there is one virtue, you must always follow when building a dashabord, at some point you just have to ship it, it’s all too easy to keep building and tweaking.
