Sunshine & Happiness: An Infographic for the Ages.

By Posted in - Featured Post on March 23rd, 2011

You may remember the awesome travel contest we ran a couple weeks ago where we gave away $100 cold hard cash courtesy of FlyThomasCook.com? It just so happens that Fly Thomas Cook is a pretty cool company and I made quick internet friends with Lawrence, the lovely gent who had contacted us about the contest. Given the dewy & sumptuous adjectives he used in emails with me I find it no surprise that his company created such a cool travel infographic. Ok, I may have put fuel to the fire and started the adjective train but it was always fun opening an email from him because I never knew what gem I would find. Like this one:

“Have a wonderful weekend full of ravishingly radiating rainbows and holistically harbinger happiness. Ciao!”

Awwww….The best part is we discovered we are both cynics at heart but still the sickeningly beautiful words continued. Really, I’ll admit it was quite fun.

Back to the infographic – There are lots of interesting facts on this little guy. For instance did you know that Facebook has created it’s own happiness index or that the U.S. was twice as happy the day Obama was elected than on a typical day? How about that sunshine directly relates to a big day on the stock market? Strange, huh?

The people at Fly Thomas Cook have spent a lot of time on this infographic and it’s pretty entertaining so go ahead and take a peek and see what interesting fact you learn from it. Maybe you can post a random fact on Facebook and add to the FB happiness index! I’m going to do that tomorrow and if you do it, please let me know in the comments. I think it could be kinda fun!

(For the record: They didn’t pay us to put this up or to put any links in this article. I posted it because I think it’s cool and I think it’s something our readers might find interesting to read. Plus, Lawrence is one heck of a cool guy! 🙂 )
