More InfoPorn: Our new favorite site

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I love InfoPorn. This is what we consider the presentation of what could be considered dull information in interesting and fascinating presentations. Trust me, these are not your typical MS Excel bar charts.

The site Information is Beautiful seems to have it all for the infoporn addicted. Their latest, Left vs Right, explores, graphically, the differences between the left and right political parties.

Concerning their approach to presenting the information, this is what they have to say:

This kind of visual approach to mapping concepts really excites me. I like the way it coaxes me to entertain two apparently contradictory value systems at the same time. Or, in other words, I like the way it f**ks with my head.

Their other posts include:

• How Safe is the HPV vaccine?
• Fatal Infection

This site is worth checking out and following regularly. I know we will.
