Gorgeous visualization of social activities in New York, London and Paris.
“My new years resolution is to make an infographic on every This American Life ever made. The idea is to expand and add context to the stories and information contained in the shows. Basically, anything I am curious about while listening to the pieces.” Lovely.
“There’s very little actual football in a football game.” I rarely record a game since I can’t stand not watching it in real time, but when I do I’m always blown away by how quickly I can skip through it.
“Examine Netflix rental patterns, neighborhood by neighborhood, in a dozen cities.” Truly fascinating interactive graphic. The Mad Men pattern is particularly interesting.
I love the attention to detail given to these infographics. The craft and time that went into creating them is so apparent. My assumption is it’s because people really thought they would be around for a long time. Unfortunately, it’s all to common for me to feel the stuff I’m working on is just going to be deleted pixels in a few years.
“The United States spends more on medical care per person than any country, yet life expectancy is shorter than in most other developed nations and many developing ones. Lack of health insurance is a factor in life span and contributes to an estimated 45,000 deaths a year.” Be sure and click on the graph.
Been doing this stuff here on T Inc. for years. This just reminds me I need to step up my info visualization game a bit.
Looks like I nice, albeit very simplified approach to data visualization from data.gov information.
My favorite part of this chart is that they call the 00’s the “Noughties”.
Incredible stuff from Tomas Nilsson.
Been linked to from just about everywhere, but it’s still great. A nearly perfect job of visualization and narrative to help explain a complex issue clearly.
Yep, the New York times map was by far the best. I love this collection though!
I love maps, and transmit maps are probably my favorite. And of transit maps, the London Underground is probably in my top 5. I haven’t found the time to watch this yet, but I’m looking forward to watching it when I finally do. From the 5 minutes I did watch, it looks fantastic.
“This is a pie chart on procrastination.”
