My favorite thing about a good infographic is that I can learn something new in just a few minutes. In addition, I can learn more about something I already know very quickly. And, lastly, they can summarize a complicated issue in a way that many people can understand.

Here are a few of my favorites from the last few weeks or so.

1. One of my favorite things: Wine. “Malbec 101“
2. Something interesting: Technology. “The Lighter Side of IT History“
3. A good summary for work: Social Media. “The CMO’s Guide to the 2014 Social Landscape“

I have been doing a little bit of research about tools to create infographics. I’ve been playing around with Canva, Piktochart, Easel.ly and Infogr.am.
