Excel Twitters 20081101

November? How did that happen? Again this week there were lots of tweets about the AC/DC video distributed in an Excel workbook, but I’ll spare you from reading them. There was even a timely USA election related tweet, and I hope it’s the last one for another four years or so!

And although I’m a Virgo, that first one isn’t from me. What kind of Virgo posts a typo?

Thrilling

  • am making lists. Gleeful, exhaustive, Virgotastc lists. In Excel.
  • Back to crunching numbers. I can’t imagine doing this in the days before Excel. Must’ve been hell- candle wax dripping onto ledger books…
  • I get a sick thrill from financial modeling on excel spreadsheets. I love the tidy perfection and instant formulaic gratification.
  • who would’ve thought you could have this much fun with excel pivot tables.
  • 2nd fav feature of Excel 2007 – having ‘wrap text’ on home ribbon. Saves oodles of time when doing my biz plans 🙂
  • new personal record for largest Excel workbook – 1,533,492 cells used!!! o.0

Macro Magic

  • Why is it every time I record an Excel macro and think that’ll be good ‘nuf…I find myself re-writing the whole thing?
  • VBA in excel can be the coolest thing ever when you get it to work. Otherwise it can send a sane man to insanity über fast.
  • Loves the person that wrote the Excel Plugin for Find and Replace within cell comments.

Make It Do This

  • Who knew that working a voter hotline actually meant tackling big ol’ excel spreadsheets? The lengths I’ll go to for Barack…
  • I am on excel writing Italian American Places in Chicago!! CIAO A TUTTI!! i wish i COULD add more people on this thing
  • When an IT leader suggests using Excel for long term data storage in a company with multi-TB SQL servers, it’s time to panic.
  • lots of things that i’m not sure that excel is prepared to do. basically my boss drew something and said: make it do this.

Can I Go Blind?

  • thinking that making timelines in excel is nearly impossible. giving up on that and trying to find something new.
  • staring at balance sheets that don’t balance and thinking that there has to be a better way of managing projections than Excel spreadsheets.
  • Nice. Excel 2007 just corrupted another document I was working directly in. Great. Such an advancement over the last version.
  • Can I go blind from looking at Excel for 8 hours a day, every day?
  • I hate excel. It shouldn’t take longer to make a graph than to do the experiment the data comes from.
