Google Public Data Visualization

In a previous post, I mentioned Google's public data feature, which allows users to explore publicly available data sets from sources such as the World Bank.

Now Google has amped up this feature with some new visualization tools. Google calls this set of tools the "Public Data Explorer," and states that now "students, journalists, and everyone else can play with the tool to create visualizations of public data, link to them, or embed them in their own web pages."

You can read the announcement from Google here.
