I couldn't sit by and let that tragedy go un-rectified. So I dusted off my sixth grade art skills and my ninth grade math skills and whipped up these 11 original graphs about Twitter. Enjoy.

11 Points is a collection of exhaustively-researched, meticulously-written, theoretically-humorous 11-item lists, covering topics ranging from TV and movies to the Internet and video games to food and dating to politics and race relations.
It's all written by Sam Greenspan, a Midwest-born, classically-trained journalist who now tries to make a dollar out of 15 cents in Los Angeles. (It's hard to be legit and still pay the rent.)
