Daily Viz from Visual Loop – 23/07/2010

Social Media, Social Media, Social Media. Looks like that’s all people are talking – or, at least, making infographics about. First, Mashable‘s breakdown of Facebook and its 500 million users. Then, the current state of YouTube, brought by Flowtown, and, finally, BBC took a look at the ups and downs of several social networks. From Bundle comes a recent report about the Top-Spending American cities for travel, cable and entertainment, and this week’s last pick is Mint‘s piece with some curious facts about Men at Work.
