Infographic Daily: How Much Does Breaking Bad’s Walter White Have Left?

Infographic: Walter White's Faltering Finances

Walter White's one rich guy. Or at least, he used to be. In the first four seasons of Breaking Bad, we saw Walter bring home the bacon and then some--only to lose tons of it subsequently due to bad calls (like the car wash), medical bills, and blackmail pay-offs, one has to wonder: how much money does Walter have left?

We've seen it happen in real life, so why shouldn't fictional TV characters lose their cash just as people in the real world do? Walter managed to scrape together a little over 3 million, but some people over at TV.com did the math and concluded that he had just 300 grand left from that huge chunk of moolah.

It'll be interesting how the show writers will address this by making Walter go through some lifestyle changes (because I'm pretty sure this is something they'd have to keep track of.) Check out the gallery above to take a closer look at Walter's faltering finances!

Like it or not, Facebook has become a part of your life. Need to get in touch with someone you knew from college? Want to invite people to your party next week in a hassle-free way? Thinking of announcing a fundraiser you're hosting or a garage sale you're organizing? Chances are, you'll turn to Facebook to do all three of these--and more.

But how much do you know about that social network you frequent so much? Sure, you log on everyday, and you might be aware of its basic stats and news. Like the fact that they have close to a billion users and recently went public, only to have their stocks flop?

We've got a bunch of useless (but fun!) Facebook trivia you probably didn't have a clue about. Find out who's the most popular celebrity on the site (it's Rihanna) and if a user named Hugh Jass really got banned (he did) by checking out our hilariously enlightening gallery above!

Infographic Daily: Free WiFi–Is It Your Friend or Your Foe?

Most people do a mental fist pump when they switch their WiFi on and find a free hotspot nearby. It's pretty understandable behavior in this day and age where most people are ready to go stir crazy if they can't log on to the Internet at least once (or twice) a day.

But is free WiFi really good for you? Sure, it won't tax your already over-taxed mobile data plan, but there are a whole bunch of security threats that come with it that you might not be fully aware of. The fact of the matter is, most of these hotspots aren't secure (which is why you were able to connect to the Internet through them in the first place.)

This means that cybercriminals and hackers lurking nearby can also connect to the hotspot--and steal your data or personal information. There are three common ways this can be done: by sniffing, sidejacking, or through the honeypot.

Check out the gallery to find out the potential dangers of free WiFi and how you can stay safe while browsing in public.

Infographic Daily: There’s Poop On Your Cellphone and Other Filthy Tech Factoids

I bet you wouldn't put think twice about scratching your face or picking your nose after typing up a storm on your keyboard. Putting your phone close to your face is probably nothing new either, since you have to do that whenever you make a call.

But after you check out today's infographic in the gallery, you might want to think twice about doing all that. According to a ton of studies, most (if not all) of your gadgets are filthy. Your smartphone? There might actually be poop on that. Your computer keyboard? It's sixty times dirtier than the average toilet seat.

Still thinking about eating that sandwich with your bare hands after playing Diablo III? Think again (and re-think your hygiene!)

Infographic Daily: James Bond’s Fast Cars

James Bond is a master spy with mad skills, and we all know how he loves his women. Perhaps one thing he loves more than his Bond girls are his fast cars. I'm sure you've noticed him hopping into one sports car to the next over the last few decades.

Agent 007 is backed by MI6 which is probably supported by millions of pounds from government funding. (Lucky bastard!) But from a real-world perspective, this probably makes the Hollywood execs and producers a couple million from all that product placement.

Bond is one character guys envy for a lot of reasons. In the gallery above, we present over two dozen of them in all their shining glory. We'll see Bond return this November in Skyfall, and I'm sure he'll probably be hopping into a car or two that we all won't be able to afford in our lifetimes. But it doesn't hurt to dream, does it?

Most people assume that they become anonymous when they're on the Internet. That makes them do all sorts of crazy stuff, like take on a new identity or start up an online fling with someone they met on the world wide web.

Now it's all fun and games--until someone finds out and it's then that you'll feel like the sh#t has finally hit the fan. Real-life affairs like the one Kristen Stewart had with married movie director Rupert Sanders suck even more, but some people actually consider online flings something to be worried about.

Since men are from Mars and women are from Venus, they obviously have different takes on this thing. To cheat or not to cheat? Is it cheating or is it just some harmless fun? Weigh in on the matter and check out what the rest of the world think by checking out the gallery!

Infographic Daily: Rise of the Planet of the Apps

Infographic: Rise of the Planet of the Apps

Apps are huge. I think that much is pretty obvious. One reason why smartphones are so popular is that their uses and functions are virtually endless thanks to these apps. From life organizers and to-do lists to games, social media, and entertainment--just do a quick search in the app store for your OS, and you'll most likely find it there.

Most apps are available for free, but some developers release premium versions of the apps too, which they sell on the app stores. If you've got an iOS or Android device, then you probably already have a hundred and one apps installed on your device for everything and anything you may need.

That said, the app industry is pretty much booming right now. Because while most apps and games cost 99 cents a pop, these small amounts will add up to a lot especially if the app goes viral. Some free versions also includes ads, so they rake in some sizable ad revenue as well even if they're offering the app free of charge.

Which countries reign supreme in the world of apps? Check out the infographic to see who's cashing in the most.
