Where have you been?
I know I’m a dork but I love seeing graphs like this:
Verizon makes graphs of where you’ve made your cell phone calls from. It is cool to see where you’ve been and for what time periods. Without knowing the specifics.
I like data visualizations like this – it is general enough that it tells you something cool, but non-specific enough where I don’t feel violated by the amount of information that Verizon stores on my usage.

Cool graph. Mine would just have two cities in Illinois. LOL. Maybe an indication that I should do some travelling?
Also, I just (re)discovered the quote you have up in your header. I like it a lot! :)
It is pretty obvious that our calls, internet access, and everything else is accessible to anyone who really wants it. However, I love the graphs and the usage comparisons as it relates to so many other aspects of communcations. It definitely shows us where we stand.
P.S.- I am a very loyal Verizon client!!

At first I was wondering why you were spending so much htime in Trenton… but then I was like… oh.
@Sarah, yea, I travelled a LOT this month! With the impending move.
@Rani, Verizon is the best. I’m never leaving them.
@Shayan, Yea Trenton NJ definitely deserves that Puce color, but Cambridge MA doesn’t deserve puce nor to be grouped with anything in new jersey!
I love it too! I didn’t know they had those graphs!
