Let's go back to our Latin-Greek Roots from High School (by the way, that was my favorite subject!)
Info=information, data, graphos: to write.... got it!
According to Wikipedia:
Information graphics or infographics are graphic visual representations of information, data or knowledge intended to present information quickly and clearly.[1][2] They can improve cognition by utilizing graphics to enhance the human visual system’s ability to see patterns and trends.[3][4] Similar pursuits areinformation visualization, data visualization, statistical graphics, information design, or information architecture.[2] Infographics have evolved in recent years to be for mass communication, and thus are designed with fewer assumptions about the readers knowledge base than other types of visualizations. Isotypes are an early example of infographics conveying information quickly and easily to the masses.

Now, let's go to the fun part.... the websites, I worked with the 3 sites that my professor (I have to ask I can write her name by the way...) easel.ly, piktochart, ad infogr.am
I liked easel.ly better, it's more Olga friendly (as I wrote to my professor).
Here are the infographics that go with the post I published before, the publication is Photo and Video Sharing Grow Online.
