For work, I create online surveys and analyse data. Lots of data and after a while the results charts get a little … boring. Smashing magazine’s latest post Data Visualization and Infographics Resources has lots of great examples of alternatives to the humble bar chart or pie chart.

Would love to create executive summaries like this one above. I imagine it takes a lot of time (and some talent). My favourite screenshot from the Smashing magazine post is this:

It’s really very simple (fundamentally it’s just a bar chart underneath with nice graphics).

This question was a comment that was randomly posted on planetdan by a blog spammer, but I would be interested to know.

I’d also like to know how much milk a cow produces (so I just looked it up – some jersey cows at Punchards Farm in Rattlesden produce 20 litres/day [source]), and also how much the farmer gets paid and what it costs to look after and feed a cow…

Just curious. I shall tag this Chicken economics!
