Info Graphic Taking Over

I think humans are becoming more lazy by simplifying everything.

For example: Have you noticed that info graphics are taking over? Many studies now publish info graphics instead of the full report or article. I think this is mainly due to how human lives have changed. Time is more important to us. It is essential for us to quickly get the information and then get out of here. We have no time to read a full report. We don’t even have time to read the summary!

I think understandability is also important. Imagine if you took out a textbook and all you see are words with font size 8. My first reaction to this: 

*yes I have spent way too many nights on 9gag…

I guess my main point of this post is to let you know – don’t blog with an essay. Keep things simple and people will take the time to read it. More graphics than words preferably. And this not only applies to blogs, but also presentations.

“a picture is worth a thousand words.”
