Here we go with a new project episode! This time we talk with Lisa Charlotte Rost about her project "My Google Search History."

Lisa is a visualization designer based in Berlin and the project is about how she collected and visualized her google search history to look into her personal data.

In the episode we discuss how she came up with the idea and all the steps she followed to realize it.

She has also a nice page on github with code that you can reuse to do the same thing with your own data!

This episode is sponsored by Qlik who allows you to explore hidden relationships within data that lead to insights. Check out the new blog post on the qlik blog called: "The role of multiple devices in our workspaces" by Donald Farmer. And, there is a big Qlik Sense Roadshow with over 100 events in Europe. You can download Qlik Sense for free at: www.qlik.de/datastories.
