Nicholas Felton is a man after my own heart.   He is a designer of information graphics, with a keen aesthetic and a penchant for numbers.  His designs are witty and easy to read.

But what I really find noteworthy is the visual appeal of his obsessions.  For the past five years, he’s been producing an annual report of his life.

He even has an Annual Report Report.  But for 2009, he took his data collection to a new level.  He asked everyone with whom he had a meaningful interaction to fill out a survey.  So this year’s report not only has data, but more context.

Apart from loving design and numbers, we apparently have other things in common, according to the report.  We both carry backpacks.  We both make puns about Juneau.  We both eat a lot.

And we can all become even more like him by tracking the data of our own lives at Daytum.  You can track whatever you like, however you like.

This is going to be so fun…
