 * Your Name:** Nicholas Smith
 * Website Name:** BBC - Future - Technology - Tomorrow's world: A guide to the next 150 years
 * URL Link to Infographic:** @http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20130102-tomorrows-world
 * Features:** This infographic by the BBC draws in the attention of the reader with the use of bright colors, and fun/smart pictograms. Although the timeline is rather standard, the author has created an x-axis which shows the continuum of likely to most unlikely innovations and events.
 * Data Information:** By following this infographic, I became interested in when dystopia and utopia have the most likelihood around the year 2017. The author of the infographic believes that dystopia will occur because of global warming and utopia will occur because of high resolution bionic eyes. Why the eyes?
 * Why you like it:** Although this infographic isn't the most unique visually, I like this infographic because it can be read many times over with different conclusions every time, allowing the reader to constantly learn more and more. A sense of humor doesn't hurt either.

Your Name:
 * Your Name:** Talia Rose Gruen
 * Website Name:** Some blog site - The Journey Through Law School. Originally saw this infographic posted on a friend's facebook page.
 * URL Link to Infographic:** http://www.thejourneythroughlawschool.com/2012/11/2012-us-voting-map-looks-eerily-similar.html
 * Features:** Color, maps of usa, map keys, bold headlines
 * Data Information:** Map from WGBH Education Foundation showing slave states in 1859, map from National Park Service showing racial segregation states in 1950 and unnamed source for 2012 election data.
 * Why you like it:** I like the connections it makes more than the actual infographic itself. Interesting correlations between states with slavery, segregation requirements and being Republican. I would like to see if these correlations exist beyond the scope of the years presented or if this was just someones way of saying the "red" states take awhile to get with the program.
