So we're sort of suckers for sweet infographics like this. But, come on, can you really blame us? I mean, just look at it.

This gem, courtesy of the team at MindMixer, shows the "state of the cities' ideas" for the month of July. In other words, in this illustration, MindMixer, an Omaha-based company that creates virtual town hall websites, captured all the ideas submitted by users on all its active sites last month. The graphic provides, as MindMixer CEO Nick Bowden said via email, "some insight into what's top of mind for citizens around the country. Pretty amazing stuff."

Going forward, MindMixer figures to have even more fodder for such infographics. Last week, the company announced it's now working with the city of Kansas City, Mo. on KC Momentum, a city-wide planning site similar to the Engage Omaha site that MindMixer helped launch in April. Bowden also said last month that MindMixer has a handful of other city clients lined up, so more announcements should come soon.
