Visualisation Draft
Planning what information to include. Seeing the message frequency change per month tells a far more interesting narrative than seeing message freq per year.
Pretty cool to see that throughout 4 1/2 years guy and I have sent almost exactly the same amount of messages.
Gathering the data for messages each month took a while because I went through all of our messages and searched "February 2014" and got 173 results (which means 173 messages) and repeated for every other month. The excel tables aren't very stylish so I had to do edit it a fair bit in Illustrator.
