Be very careful though a please ensure the data is represented correctly. The example given http://www.princeton.edu/~ina/infographics/ has some very bad mistakes.
When they are comparing the size of sending the bullets and the people are not in proportion to the data. For example the difference between Israel and USA spending per capita is 36% percent larger but the graphic is approximately 50% larger. The bullets are even worse. The sending difference is 720% greater, where as the bullet is 4400% larger. This mistake is not unusual. Also be very aware where you going to use these infographics as use on the web is very different to print. Print will allow more detail, but the web allows interaction. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
