Today I came across a fun blog that I wanted to share. Not
only do I love marketing and love learning about analysis, I love when others
are able to present it in a creative and fun way. The blog, à la data, promotes data
literacy. His attractive data visualizations are made even more enjoyable
because of topics they cover. I’m a big fan of his Game of Thrones post. I especially loved this chart of the most talked about Game of Thrones characters, but mostly because
Tyrion Lannister is a fantastic character and I was happy to see he won the
popularity prize!

The writer of à la data gathered his data using Sysomos, a
dashboard that lets you view and collect relevant online conversations. This
type of information lets markets see what people are talking about, what is
trendy, who are thought leaders, or make cool data visualizations about tv
shows!
Here is an informative video about Sysomos:
