FlowingData's personal viz contest winner

FlowingData held a "self surveillance" contest where readers submitted visualizations of data they collected about themselves or their surroundings. The winner is Tim Graham who collected and visualized data about the email spam he receives, how much he drinks (not just alcohol), and, as seen above, where it hurts. Stunning examples of what Gary Wolf and Kevin Kelly call the quantified self, or "tools for knowing your own mind and body." FlowingData's Personal Visualization Project winner (FlowingData.com, thanks Sean Ness!)

Sounds like something taken from the Order in Cory's short story "The Things that Make Me Weak and Strange Get Engineered Away."
