fun graphs with heart

Graphs. I bet you never thought they can be fun. Graphs and charts are pretty much limited to work or school, right?

WRONG! For one, Marshall Eriksen (Jason Segal in How I Met Your Mother, CBS) has shown in the Right Place, Right Time episode (Ep 22, Season 4) how he uses these visual representation of data for work and fun. He created a pie chart of his favorite bars and bar chart of his favorite pies. (On a totally unrelated note, Season 5 starts Sept 21, 8 pm on CBS)

A great resource for fun charts (if you’ve got time to waste) is graphjam.com.

LOLed on this chart because I always read every language on the back of shampoo bottles, soap boxes, toothpaste tubes, anything you’ll find laying on the comfort room.

Many of the charts are really funny (see chance of keeping job if you’re wrong 75% of the time – a jab on weathermen). While some topics are trivial, some of these charts actually talk of serious topics – many we should address.

MANILA, Philippines—YouTube is the Internet’s biggest time-sucker. You begin with one link, one click, one video. Then you find yourself clicking on related videos. And on the user’s other videos.

Soon, it’s 6 a.m. and you’ve watched dozens and dozens of videos, and half of them aren’t even worth the sleepless night.

Inquirer 2bU! has decided to do the dirty YouTube work for you. We’ve sifted through the virtual pile and found videos worth your download time.
