Developing nations and data visualizations



It's worth spending twenty minutes watching this TED talk on the statistics of developing nations. The data visualizations that speaker Hans Rosling generates to demonstrate his points are dazzling. Watch if you are interested in global health and development. Watch if you're a data vis geek. Watch if you just need to kill twenty minutes and you're tired of poking your friends on Facebook.

Oh, and I guess we acquired Rosen's data vis software, Trendalyzer, a few months ago. I hope we do great things with it.
