Data

We love data. And we love getting data good and tight and comprehensive.

The technical term for that is “juicy”. Juicy data. In fact, 80% of the work involved in creating an infographic is data-gathering, shaping and checking. Making the data juicy.

So here, naturally, is a big-ass spreadsheet of all our best data.

You can also view the original Google doc. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/173kXrmgG0K4Q_K0d2GFgADnW3wB66xh9R1IdyjB3eXY/edit#gid=1
