At the time of writing, Version 1 lets you create various types of bar chart, line chart and pie chart. Version 2, introduces more sophisticated graph types such as stacked bars. In both cases you get nice little refinements as well as animated pie charts, and with a little fiddling you can customise the way your graph appears by changing its colours, fonts and size.
