    I'm not 100% sure why, but the growth of Target is my favorite. Maybe it was the first post I saw on FD and it was what got me hooked...

    As someone who has his own set of "statistical diaries", I really loved the designs in the Personal Visualization Project:

    Definitely the "Growth of Wal-Mart" post from last year. That's the one that got me subscribed.

    My favorite has been the Visual Guide to the Financial Crisis. I shared it with all my friends.

    Very simple, but very effective! It got me started on creating interactive mapping tools... visualising data geographically adds so much more meaning to the data.

    The item that brought me to the site and got me hooked was:
    http://flowingdata.com/2009/01/30/mapping-and-animating-growth-of-target-across-us/

    The contests are a great idea, it's great to see the different takes on the same data.
