| The future of infographics in a golf swing [infographic] | | 09 May 2013, 11:40AM |  Say what you like about infographics, and many like to say they’re dead, but they continue to be some of the most shared content on the web.

As the chief exec of a mobile ad tech platform, I agree that content consumption has gone through radical changes in the last decade.
