May I ask you to expand a bit what "networked" is? something like:
read data from a remote server and plot on the client? Just to have an
idea :)

The idea of the book is to start with simple plots, describing the
methods we call and how they work, to go into more details along the

I already thought about an examples of "plotting with data changing on
time" like plotting the cpu usage or so, so it might be useful to you
that too :)

If there's something particular interesting for you, it would be
helpful to me to know it :)
