A Minty Fresh Chart

Because I like data analysis so much, I often think that sweetest gig in the world would be working at someplace like Google where you have tons of data that you could mine for interesting behaviors and trends. I think Mint.com is the same thing. Although, they often do post cool charts with all of that data on the Mint Life blog. Although, they have a lot of other worthy stuff too.
