GapMinder Talk

March 18, 2007 |

Just read an article about Google buying a small company called GapMinder which does data visualization.  I checked out the talk on the GapMinder homepage, and would recommend watching the first 10 minutes of it.  The visualization tool that is used throughout the talk is something special…easy to see Google’s interest.

    I think GapMinder was the tool used by Hans Rosling to make his really awesome presentation at TED Talks last year. You can find all the talks here. You can search by names. Some of those talks are simply outstanding.

    Please look at his earlier talk too.

    Great blog, by the way. Visualization brings the data alive.
