Too many of the examples I see just look like clones of each other. But now and then I run across an infographic that is distinctly different, and worth sharing. Case in point: this interactive graphic from OnlinePhD.org, which steps you through Google’s growth year by year (thanks to Google Tutor for the lead.) The drawing is not outstanding, but the interactivity and engagement are. Created by Online PhD. Where I think this infographic is on the right track is in suiting itself to the computer. Much friendlier. | B2B MEMES JANUARY 24, 2012 Will Self-Publishing Save Print? Last month in this blog, I made a statement that at the time seemed obvious, but now seems rash. Most writers,” I wrote in declaring that print is effectively dead , “don’t care in a meaningful way about the physical presence of a book. They just want to tell a story, or convey information, or to create works of art out of their words.”. Since then, I’ve had cause to rethink my position. Print, it seems, isn’t dead, but just retired. Though diminished, it still has vital roles to play—especially for writers. The leaning back was satisfactory; the surveying less so. It can’t be done. | | | | | | |
