WireLoad is a young company that embraces Open Source. We use Open Source in all part of our company. However, we also realize that using Open Source comes with a certain responsibility. The reason why many of the leading Open Source projects has become what they they are today is because of people not only use the software and provide feedback, but also give back by submitting their code and give donations.
Since we use a lot of Open Source tools, we sometimes find the need to tailor these tools to better fit our need (or to simply improve them). Once we’ve done these changes, we want to give them back to the community.
Open Flash Chart, WireLoad Edition
About
Data visualization is important for most organizations. Yet, we were surprised to find the lack of decent data visualization tools (both Open Source and commercial). We know we’re picky, but when you’re used to the quality of the graphs generated in Apple iWork, it’s hard to settle for something that looks like it was created in Microsoft Office.
The closest thing to ‘Apple iWork’-quality we found was Open Flash Chart. Yet we were not completely satisfied with the end-result, and had to put our engineers to work on improving it. The result is something we call Open Flash Chart, WireLoad Edition. We use this in the status reports for YippieMove. Open Flash Charts, WireLoad Edition is based on OFC v2.
