Scorecard / Dashboard poor design

Stay away from “Chart Junk”
        Chart junk refers to visual content that serves no analytical purpose.  It’s just there for decoration.  Your customers will quickly tire of this content (as it is typically static) and this space on the scorecard will quickly become useless.  If you try to use this space at a later date for some important data your customers will have to retrain themselves to look at that space.  The space is better left blank.
