A Picture Tells a Thousand Words... what is it saying, then?

One of my favourite blogs of the moment is Creating Passionate Users. A recent post is all about what (meaningful) graphics can tell you. Paint-a-picture kind of stuff.

This one really stood out for me (click on it to see the full size):


Inspiring? Or scary?

Imagine if your life represented graphically as a series of dots (on a PowerPoint slide, of all things!).

Where would you be up to on a page?

And how many dots (do you think) you have left to go? Kind of makes you want to go out and make so sure that the dots you have left really count, yeah?

Anyhow. It inspired me.
