OK, I confess - I'm a data junky. So I am very thankful to Jim Gibbon (via Eszter Hargittai of Crooked Timber) for posting about Gapminder. It provides the best visualisation of data I have ever seen. Here is Jim's post:
I’ve been blown away this morning by a new tool for displaying world development data called Gapminder. If you want a spicy way to show off statistical data, it’s hard to imagine a more compelling software program. There is a great video demonstration of Gapminder being used in what is possibly one of the best presentations I have ever seen (I laughed, I cried, my jaw dropped). You can play around with the program online, but make sure to watch the video to get a sense of its capabilities. (Note: No statistical knowledge required, appropriate for all audiences!)
The Gapminder Foundation was founded by Ola Rosling, Anna Rosling Rönnlund and Hans Rosling in Stockholm. It shows what a small non-profit can do. You can checkout the Gapminder tool online - and there is also a related tool with even more options on the website: Trendalyzer. It's capabilities are awesome. The website also has plenty of downloads and presentations.
I have developed the exact same tool.

Dear Sir,
Epic Systems together with Beemode (www.beemode.com) has developed a Data Visualization software "Trend Compass" almost ready to be released soon. It is an extension to Gapminder which was invented by a Swedish Professor.
We are looking to promote that software in various sectors. It is a new concept in viewing statistics and trends in an animated way. It could be used in presentation, analysis,research, decision making, etc.
Here is one link for part of what we did with some Governmental institution:
www.epicsyst.com/visual.swf
Here is another link for a project we did with Princeton University on US unemployment :
www.epicsyst.com/main3.swf
I hope you could evaluate it and give me your comments. So many ideas are there.
In a few days you can test the software by uploading data on our website and getting the corresponding Flash charts. This is for a limited number of users.
Regards.
