VIMEO Video of the Week!

Infographics!  You've probably seen them in your favorite magazine, news show, or website.  In a nutshell, an infographic provides a visualized - almost pictorial - display of data that is easily accessible (and entertaining) than your standard venn diagram or bar graph.  

Sorry Youtube (I still heart you), but this week's video comes from Vimeo - another video hosting/posting website - and it presents how to create your own infographic at a nifty little website called Easel.ly.  To use Easel.ly you must create a free account, using an active email.
