Simple way to embedd charts into webpages

Posted on December 7th 2007 in Web Development

Google has released an API that allows us to embed charts into our pages as simply as making an HTTP call to the API which generates a PNG image using parameters passed in the call. Here are some example of what can be done:

chart.png chart1.png
chart2.png chart3.png

More information about this API here. This is a simpler, very useful alternative to a more complex, but surprisingly powerful, jQuery library called Flot which uses “canvas”.
