iPad tablet statistics. Looking back over 12 months.

Continuing this weeks theme of interesting info graphics, here are some revealing numbers for Apple’s iPad looking back over the past 12 months. An incredible sales prediction for 2014 if you take into consideration every other major manufacturer will have a tablet in the marketplace.

Found this nice little infographic on Digital Buzz Blog while having lunch today. Quite astounding that 1 in 11 people on the planet are now on Facebook! The figures are incredible when you think about them, nearly 8 new accounts are registered every second!

I wouldn’t even like to think how much the server and network system costs to keep going each month.

The infographic was originally crated by SocialBakers.

A nice social info-graphic from Digital Surgeons. An incredible amount of users are now using these social channels as illustrated by the Facebook world map below (generated by visualising friendships).

This is cool, #uksnow map. UK real-time snow reports using Twitter.

How to join in – Tweet the hashtag #uksnow, the first half of your postcode, and rate the snow that is falling out of ten (0/10 for nothing, 5/10 for steady snow and 10/10 for arctic blizzard conditions).

Optionally, you can include the depth of snow (cm or inches), attach a photo and add a description to your tweet.

Ok so I am obviously like a moth to the flame with info graphics but Francesco Franchi’s work is far too nice not to share with everyone. An Art Director for ‘IL — Intelligence in Lifestyle’ he has amassed a pretty nice body of work.

Lovely Flickr photostream, I like the fact that he has taken the time to photograph his work properly, nice attention to detail.

Yoof movement?

I got a link to this info-graphic yesterday from Roz one of Harvest’s user experience team. Interesting and surprising facts on the average ages of people on and using social networks.

A big misconception is that they are dominated by the yoof, the fastest growing demographic are the over 50′s who are embracing technology and new communication channels at a significant rate.

The full info-graphic can be seen on thenextweb.com and more via Flowtown.

“Data is the new oil” they say.

A nice talk by David McCandless on the benefits of visualising complex data, enabling unseen trends and connections.
