Yau also made a splash in the Twitter sphere with his map plotting the explosion of Twitter action during Barack Obama’s swearing-in ceremony; more recently, Yau has been working on the UNdata project, last month co-producing the first of what will become many entries in Progress: A Graphical Report on the State of the World for the United Nations.

Palmer Fri, 06 Mar 2009 04:14:22 +0000 http://flowingdata.com/?p=1391#comment-24743 Very well done. I'm actually a bit moved by the data being presented here. Sure, we can all talk about the different means of presenting the data, but let's not forget the practical application that's come from this- you've provided a great service to the world by turning all of that UN data into actual information. I wish this was many, many pages longer. Any chance of expanding the small subset you've provided us with? Maybe some crowdsourcing opportunity here? Very well done.
