Information Wants to be Loved
Two videos. My daughter Sky showed me this last week:
And Cat Garza showed us this on his blog last week:
They've both been around for a while (2006 & 2002), but if you've never seen either I strongly recommend both. [dates edited to match main page]
Funny thing is, I love the first one because it's all about pure information-spare, monochrome, one idea at a time-and I love the second one because it's just the opposite: a cascading waterfall of mostly useless infographics. Maybe it's just the sensation of being taught. Maybe it's just porn for info-geeks like me. Either way I can't take my eyes off them.
