Infographic: Lack of Health Care vs. Terrorism, Which Kills More? [article + visual] |
Ordinarily I start out with a longwinded rant on how just because someone sucks doesn't mean their information can't possibly be valid but this time there's a lot more than just one source so:

I've got ~2070 of these (a lot of them how-to informational style) now in the following categories:
Advice Anatomy Animals Architecture Art Astronomy Charts computers countries DIY economics electronics entertainment facts fashion fighting and combat fitness foods government and politics health history internet language literature math music periodic table style infographics photoshop and colors religion science survival technology the world videogames and gaming weapons and military Anyone want anything in particular? (p.s. some way to bring the filesize on these down would be much appreciated... there's no reason some of these should be a freakin megabyte.) |
Shadowex3: As is my curse, not many of my [gallery] threads receive anything more than sparing views here-or-there, and even rarer, is when someone actually leaves a comment in reply.
I have a bunch of these, too, (I've been collecting about a couple a month since mid-March) so I'm not sure what I'm waiting for, but I try to post here about once a week, to keep interest up. I found a 2010-retrospectacle one, which, yeah, I should have already posted last week, but I've been delayed. Anyway, post whatever you find interesting and/or knowledge-worthy, shadow; because if you wait for others to take a visible interest in these, or actually wait until you get a response, you might never return (/sad ha-ha). - - - Here's soemthing shared by another: http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/found-n...ospective.html (nice find) |

Hi Jetée
I'm still discovering threads on this forum. Thank you for providing me with an extrememly well-spent 5 hours of Sunday Morning. I appreciate this, and if I come across any good content on my travels, I will contribute. Best wishes :) |
So basically infographics (not a word) is any picture with information? I mean, most everything being posted can be called something else, charts and bar graphs, etc. My point is not to knock the thread, but more curiosity as to the origin of the term.

I'll try to bestow a more definite generalization of what can apply, and what may not, but at the moment, whatever several dozen of illustrations above, and anterior, fit the mold of what this topic is seeking to cultivate - knowledge, understanding, and above all, thought. Thought leads to questioning and reasoning, and while we haven't had much follow-up via other members' replies as of yet, I'm still kinda hoping for it. - - - - - In the mean, you can enjoy this sampling: This animate was adapted from a talk given at the RSA by Sir Ken Robinson, world-renowned education and creativity expert and recipient of the RSA's Benjamin Franklin award. |

The Dr. Who Infographic

I don't think the map is terribly useful, and its not all that accurate unless the author continously monitors nation internet usage on a per-month basis of actual average data use (he didn't; it's just based on faceless, baseless connections that are interlinked and to be seen through any random Facebook account).

author's comments: Visualizing data is like photography. Instead of starting with a blank canvas, you manipulate the lens used to present the data from a certain angle. When the data is the social graph of 500 million people, there are a lot of lenses through which you can view it. One that piqued my curiosity was the locality of friendship. I was interested in seeing how geography and political borders affected where people lived relative to their friends. I wanted a visualization that would show which cities had a lot of friendships between them. click to show [boingboing.] |

Kinda misleading as some of those are clonal colonies rather than a single conventional tree. Methuselah is the current oldest known single non-clonal living organism.

[infographic ; visual of interest] Oil'd, written & animated by Chris Harmon
This amazing infographic explains what we’d have done with 205 million gallons of oil if the Gulf Oil Spill hadn’t happened...
"Last year’s Gulf Oil Spill released 205 million gallons of oil — such a huge amount, it’s hard to get your mind around. + bonus (author's comments): A year ago, a massive oil spill began in the Gulf. The entire country was glued to the news until the well was capped, and then we forgot about it. As the year anniversary was fast approaching I became curious, just how much oil was that exactly? Where would it have gone? What I found was shocking. So in an effort to further our discussion on oil dependency I created this short animation. I've spent all of my free time in the last month putting this together to help illustrate just how dependent we truly are on oil. [io9. / vimeo.] |
