The Periodic Table is the New Infographic
Presenting data with boring old charts and graphics is out. INFOGRAPHICS are in. This new buzz word means fusing your business or other message with conceptual visuals to create a concise and instantly understandable graphic. Representing data in a visual fashion is not a new idea, it’s what we do here at Pi Design for a living. But I find it funny how many people are taking advantage of the age old Periodic Table to create visual rankings of all kinds of crazy things. One of our office favorites is Camdon Wilde’s Periodic Table of Typefaces. (Available for purchase here)
I have put together a fun collection of these “new” infographics for your viewing pleasure.
The Periodic Table of Awesoments
This is a hilarious Table of truly awesome stuff that most of us geeks can relate to. Please notice that the number one element is bacon. This guy must know what he is talking about. Am I right?
The Periodic Table of Rockin’
This funny, interactive musical Table will keep you entertained for quite awhile.
The Periodic Table of Irrational Nonsense
The Periodic Table of Cartoon Characters
How many can you name without cheating? More than 40? More than 80? Seriously? All of them? Grow up.
The Periodic Table of Cars
In case you can’t get enough of these tables then try this shirt on for size.
After all that if you still want some more periodic-ness in your life, memorize this song and then tell me if you have had enough.
