You don’t have to be a professional designer to create engaging, educational infographics with attention-grabbing icons.
"Infographics are a key tool in the arsenal of any designer, marketer, brand or research firm. No matter what you’re using an infographic to explain, the methods you use are at the crux of good design — breaking complex ideas down into a visually pleasing, quickly digestible format. Whether you’re helping people understand the complexities of cryptocurrency, or simply want a more visually engaging way to explain an apple pie recipe, understanding the basics of infographic design will give you a leg up in visual communications of any kind."
Jim Lerman's insight:
Excellent tutorial on effective use of icons in, not just infographics, but many types of visual communication.

Pay attention to the Audio-technica ATR2100. This is an inexpensive usb microphone that will give you a big-league sound.
This item is great because it's able to plug directly into any usb port, and you can also go the xlr route and use it as a traditional analog microphone.
One drawback I've heard is that the usb port won't hold up to much pulling of the cord. But hey, for the money this is a great dynamic microphone.
