• FiveThirtyEight
• Flowing Data
• The Upshot
• Information is Beautiful Awards
• /r/dataisbeautiful
• The Pudding

Data Sets

• Google's Dataset Search
• List of Public APIs
• BuzzFeed News Data

• Government Data
• Data is Plural
• /r/datasets
• ProPublica Political data sets
• Awesome Public Datasets

• The Pudding

I asked about new ones on twitter a while ago, and got some of these from there! I linked the Tweet if you're interested in seeing more!
