Dallas Mavericks 2011 Season in Infographic Form

My favorite basketball team just won the NBA Championship. Chartball Posters created an infographic for it. Why wouldn’t I post a link to it?

Crazy amounts of data here. Probably too much to digest easily but pretty cool nonetheless. Get your own for a mere $43. Ok, I’m not spending $43 bucks on it either but maybe in a moment of impulse you’ll decide jump on it.

Note to family: It’s cool, but not ‘hey, he likes it, mark-it-down-for-a-gift-idea-later,’ cool.

Hot typographical infographic

Somebody please do me a favor and find the origin of this poster. Must-have for the office. I might never tire of infographics.

Infographic, A Dad’s Perspective

I kept a few stats Feltron-style leading up to and during our stay in the hospital with kid #2. Thought I’d share them with anyone else who wanted to see them. It hasn’t been done but could be turned into a poster if there was interest (from family, I am assuming).

End of week internet goodness for 10/02/09

A quality teacher:

“On a history test we were asked, ‘Who was Michelangelo?’ I answered, ‘Renowned artist/Ninja Turtle. Wore an orange headband. Weapon: daggers.’ My teacher marked this wrong and wrote back, ‘WEAPON: NUNCHUCKS. CHECK YOUR FACTS.’”

Call of the year
I want this guy calling all of the games for the teams I root for from now on. You’ve got to listen to both audio (in order) to understand. They’re short. (more…)
