Out of the Blue – October 2015

Out of the blue

Interesting snippets from the world of data

This month we look at what happens when logos go wrong. We also show how you can use online tools in interesting ways, such as to find a room-mate with ‘bants’ or to find out your position in the world. We wrap up with a look at the world of Vogue and how much it costs to look good.

 

Logos
Terrible logos.
 Most logos have a story behind them and often a hidden meaning. For these it was the unintentional, not-so-hidden meaning that got them into trouble

 

Cool
Where all the cool people live. 
Searching for a new house-mate? Enjoy ‘banter’? Then look no further than this little tool from Spare Room

 


World
Where do you sit in the world? 
Find out if you are officially young or old on population.io. I am old for the World but on the young-side in the UK

 


Vogue
Dress to impress.
 These guys wondered how much it would cost to look as good as the people in one issue of Vogue. Almost $1m apparently. Check out this infographic to see where you need to spend the money
