Some of the posted samples were interesting. The one from Rebecca Baxter (http://www.behance.net/gallery/Infographic-CV-Resume/1175821) was the most interesting for me, since it offered ideas I might actually use. She seemed interested in discovering new ways of presenting her information usefully. Most of the rest seem like they were just motivated by a desire to be different.

Note for miller_f:

On my 13" MacBook, your website's design is confusing.

The Info section on the left contains the title of the blog post, but it's pushed down partly below the fold. It took me "forever" to figure out that it's the post's title.

Then the Post section in the middle begins with a 280px-square ad, which pushes almost everything but the first header of your post below the fold. And since that header isn't the post title, it doesn't instantly register that the post is even there.

Finally, I think it's a symptom of poor design that you need text which literally points to the "Post" section.

It's horribly confusing on a larger screen, too. There's no hierarchy or distinction between ad, meta-info, and actual content.

Totally agree. I pan a bunch of these in a comment below, but Rebecca's is clear, simple, and appealing. The pie chart is unclear (as always), but the timeline + written experience combination is excellent. I would definitely invite her for an interview.
