My Weekly Media Use

Two weeks ago our class was asked to track our individual media usage over one week and create and information graphic to represent it. My media use results didn't surprise me very much, except for my excessive text messaging. It really showed me the difference between having unlimited texting and paying 15 cents per text like I used to.
     I chose to split my media up into categories and group similar media in order to make it easier to draw quick comparisons. The pie charts all express the media categories that were tracking usage by hours, and the green blocks underneath most of the pie graphs give statistics on the media we were asked to track by frequency rather than hours. Each statistic is underneath a category it relates to, which adds more depth to the information than just the pie charts.
