Friday Follow: Chart Porn
Occasionally, I like to take a Friday to tell you about the blogs I read on a regular basis. Today, it’s porno-graphic.
Chart Porn, run by DC Economist Dustin Smith, is an all-you-can-eat buffet of infographics. Dustin compiles links to just about every note-worthy visualization, flow chart, or map on just about any subject.
Thankfully, ecometrics abound:
High Speed Rail in the USA
Global Energy Consumption
Coal Plants in the US
Global Climate Dashboard
If you’re a visual learner (and who isn’t?) and you want to keep up on any field from politics to pop-culture, subscribe to the Chart Porn feed.
Just be sure to change the name of the link in your feed reader, and don’t open the links at work. When asked to change the blog’s name to something a little less provocative (and incriminating!), Dustin flatly refused.
I guess they really are data visualizations you just gotta love…
