The New York Times created an interesting and touching (and depressing) data collage, titled "Faces of the Dead". A series of squares form the collaged image of a deceased United States service member. Each square within the image represents an individual that has died in Iraq since the war began. Click on any of the squares and the image transforms to depict the picture of the particular person you are looking for. Searchable demographic information is also provided. So sad.
