Excel Twitters 20090605 – Excel Theatre Blog

Hold music for Excel? That’s a good idea. Maybe Jon could work on that when he goes on that long vacation. In the meantime, please don’t drink, speak French, and try Excel tongue twisters. Or at least don’t try all at the same time.

Thanks for Waiting

Working all day on an Excel spreadsheet is like hooking a vacuum directly to your soul.
An Excel spreadsheet should be no larger than your monitor. Otherwise you go blind scrolling right and left and up and down.
I wish I could bill MS 1 hour for every 1 day I’ve wasted on Excel 2007 (and couldn’t bill my clients). I could go on a long vacation.
MS Excel for Mac needs hold music, and one of those messages: “Thanks for waiting, your spreadsheet is very important to us.”

Chart Distractions

It’s utterly stupid that Excel 2007 STILL cannot save a chart as an image file without jumping through several hoops.
protip: add a graph to excel spreadsheets. Don’t worry, it doesn’t need to relate to the rest of the data. That’s for nerds…
Trying to create an excel chart that has a floating axis and I’m being distracted by people nearby speaking loudly in French.

Solid Gold

8 hours. 50 lines of spreadsheet. Solid gold. Well, not literally, of course! Yellow was the closest Excel shading colour I could find.
Seeking perfection in an Excel spreadsheet. Feeling certain that I’m the not-so-distant ancestor of a Borg.
If Excel was a game I’d be MVP.

Google That

Needed some ms excel tips (for drawing a live status complete bar) and bing proved better than google .. blood is thicker than competition
Google Squared has been released today – “It’s like Google search had a lovechild with Microsoft Excel” http://tr.im/no59
why does excel crash every time i go to select data for a graph – i wish you could phone microsoft like we can phone Google…

Excel and Twitter

My twitter background was made using excel. Is that cool or am I just a nerd? Or both!
You can export your follower lists to excel with www.friendorfollow.com. Includes bio/location info.

It’s Better Than Actual Work

The NY Times thinks it breaking news that marketers read Excel spreadsheets and do actual analysis! http://bit.ly/n2RAq
Library inventory sucks. Adding to the Excel spreadsheet everything the student left off. Made him go finish last stack since he’s lazy.
I felt the need to use Microsoft Excel for something, so I used it to make a finals studying schedule. Instead of actually studying. D:

VBA Sucks

I’ve got hits from bing.com, and it isn’t even up yet. One of the previewers must be using it to search for VBA code?
you know you are in trouble when the vba code contains variables such as “vbasucks” for goal indicators! It wasn’t me!
Mum’s very stuck into getting this excel form macro perfect for me, I’m a little concerned.

Fake Your Way

Can’t say I’ve ever gotten anything good in a work email-received excel spreadsheet.
My boss still hadn’t figured out that I totally fake my way through Excel…
haha.. love it!! I have tetris on an excel spreadsheet… so it makes it look like I am working… 🙂

Models and Photoshoots

Also, the photoshoot was for the guys who were in the top 5 for Microsoft Word and Excel. So that includes me.
OH: “I could model it in excel for you… but I’m too drunk!”
MS Excel tongue twister: “Shift Cells Up”.
