Infographics 


Visual.ly is a one-stop shop for the creation of data visualizations and infographics, bringing together various persons based on shared interests.

This tool fetches data from certain period of activities happened so far.
  
As a part of this assignment, I came across many top sites which help create a good infographic resume. I came across a plethora of such sites but i chose visual.ly for a detailed study.

For those of us who wants to design a different looking resume from others, it helps a lot.
I have gone through this and build a different looking resume.

The steps to be followed to create resume through visul.ly

1       Go to the following link http://visual.ly/
2        Click on the create option à http://create.visual.ly/
3         I chose resume by Kelly
4        I chose Helen Wheels, black gradient to create my resume
5         I uploaded my details from my LinkedIn profile à http://www.linkedin.com






Pros:

- Allows choosing between 4-5 themes.
- Options to tweet, share on FB, Pin and share on other social media sites
- Provides option to download as PDF, mail to your email ID.
- Easy Accessibility.
- Different gradient versions.
- Ease of data access, no need to edit/enter any data.

Cons -:

- Doesn't allow playing around with the format of the resume.
- Less options to customise the graphics.
- Limited number of themes to select.
