If you haven't printed the Chronodex Jan-Jun 2013 version, I've improved it a bit more by removing the instructions repeated on every page, so that you can save some ink. Here's the link again. Next, since Xmas has passed and I have a little bit of time, versions with Hong Kong and Korean holidays.

Oh about Xmas. This year is particularly slow in terms of retail, I guess it is important to realize that shopping is no longer as crazy as before, which is a good thing coz I've seen so much waste generated by people buying crap products for just the occassion. Easy to spot the good hearted people sourcing for genuinely great stuffs for people to buy, versus those who just want to make quick money or answer to boss.

If you are like me ,being a visual person, visualizing data trying to come into senses is so important I believe most lack the compulsion to find the right tool. On Christmas eve I pulled out 4 years of Xmas data, each year consists of ~56,000 products and dumped them into Macrofocus' Treemap, Vola! Patterns emerged, immensely satisfying.
Finally, thank you Traveler's Notebook fans Fishball and Colin from different parts of the world for sending me these nice packages, love them!
