Abstract: A method implements data visualization collaboration. The method displays, for a second user, an interface with a comment pane that displays a first comment text and a first thumbnail image of a data visualization generated according to a first visual specification, from a first user. In response to detecting an input from the second user to select the first thumbnail image, the method generates and displays the data visualization. The method receives, from the second user, input modifying the data visualization, and input specifying a second comment that refers to the data visualization. In response, the method generates a second thumbnail image and a second visual specification corresponding to the modified data visualization, and transmits that information along with the second comment text to the first user.

Abstract: A method implements data visualization collaboration. The method receives, from a first user, a first comment that refers to a data visualization. The comment includes text, a first thumbnail image of the data visualization, and a first visual specification to build the data visualization. The method displays, to a second user, an interface with a comment pane that displays the first comment text and the first thumbnail image. The method detects input from the second user to select the first thumbnail image. In response, the method generates and displays the data visualization. The method receives, from the second user, input modifying the data visualization, and input specifying a second comment that refers to the data visualization. In response, the method generates a second thumbnail image and a second visual specification corresponding to the modified data visualization, and transmits that information along with the second comment text to the first user.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for facilitating access to shared resources within computer clusters may include identifying a quick response code captured by at least one computing system. The method may also include identifying information encoded in the quick response code captured by the computing system. The method may further include determining that the information encoded in the quick response code contains an activation key that facilitates activation of a software application. The method may additionally include applying, in response to this determination, the activation key to the software application in order to activate the software application without requiring a user of the software application to manually enter the activation key. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
