Comment on Visualization: Guy-to-girl ratio of every bar and restaurant in SF/NYC

Comments

Can we correctly label datasets please?

Visualization: Guy-to-girl ratio of foursquare/gowalla/facebook checkins for every bar, restaurant and other random location in SF/NYC frequented by foursquare/gowalla/facebook places users who remember to check in.

There are so many baises in there about the only solid fact you can take away from any of this is the relative popularity of locations with people who feel the need to broadcast their location.

I have to agree - the first thing I did on the site was to try to figure out where the data was from. But I can't find it anywhere (or even an "about" button that explains it). I assumed it was foursquare (same principle as wheretheladies.at, right?) but would have liked to see some background.
