Tableau Software, brainchild of a former Pixar founder, has just released the newest version of their flagship product Tableau 6.  Taking on all the major players in business intelligence, the new version has some huge improvements.

From the speed of the Data Engine to the I-can’t-believe-it ease of Data Blending, Tableau 6 will change what you can achieve with data. And with more than 60 new features including beautifulcombination charts and page trails, you’ll never forget the first time you had 6.

To celebrate the launch, today is the first day of “Six Education Day“.  A collection of 6 licensed experts are on-hand to field questions submitted via blog comments, email, or Twitter.  In addition, every 6-minutes after the hour they’ll be giving away “Joy of 6” T-Shirts!

So go check it out, they have a free 14 day trial you can download and play with (if you’re on a Windows Machine), and view the PDF of all the new features.
