I’m a sucker for charts and graphs. I found something from IBM yesterday that kept me entertained for a few minutes: Many Eyes. It lets you submit data sets, then use their visualizations to see your (or someone else’s) data.
And while I’m at it, another interesting (but almost disturbing) visualization is BreathingEarth. It shows the CO~2 emissions from every country in the world, along with birth and death rates. And the data is in real-time. If I were into data analysis, I think it would be fun to come up with creative ways to present data (assuming I could write Java applets and Flash movies).
