Pie goes great with dinner, but does not always pair the best with information. If you are looking for an alternative to the overused pie chart to explain percentages, here’s a clever alternative.

It may take a little longer to create, but will most likely be more engaging for your audience.

The content of the graph and discussion is also interesting. You can check it out on the Information is Beautiful blog.
