GAPMINDER - Persuasive Visualizations?
Gapminder is a non-profit that develops and provides free software to visualize"human development." According to the website their vision is to: Making sense of the world by having fun with statistics! I was fortunate to hear a talk and view a demo by them at Stanford some time back, and was very impressed with their work. I think there is a great need for data to be accessible in simplified and visual from, and Gapminder is doing a great job at that. Moreover, they work together with Lund University, UNDP and WHO, which lends them a lot of credibility.
