I like information and I’m a very visual person. One of my favorite sections of any Wired magazine is the couple pages dubbed “infoporn” which display some sort of statistical information in a creative and potentially impactful way.
Bar and Pie charts just don’t cut it anymore.
I recently stumbled across a site that will give me my pretty data fix whenever I need it. Enter infosthetics.com, a blog dedicated to data visualization and visual design, that scours the nets for interesting infographics.
See links to things represented like:
An average american’s spending habits
Or videos visualizing Greenhouse Gas production
Or the romantic aspirations of thousands of online daters.
See things in different ways.
