The GapMinder - Hans Rosling

I recently came across this video on TED of a presentation that Dr. Hans Rosling gave on world statistics. This video is a must watch - not just for the information presented - but also the entertaining format in which Hans Rosling delivers it. It is by far one of the best talks I have seen. Incidentally - a few days after this talk was presented at TED - the company GapMinder (which created the software tool TrendAnalyzer) was bought by Google. I can only wonder what Google has in mind for this tool. If the video is not viewable - check out the following page: http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/140
