    Rosling had some of the best graphs I have ever seen. They were oddly entertaining.

    Hans Rosling is an utterly inspiring speaker, and I use the Gapminder software as an example of how to present complex data in a simple but not simplistic way.

    Thank you for posting the Hans Rosling talk! I’ve been trying to spread that around forever, and I don’t think there’s a better way to get it out to people who will appreciate it than posting a link on the Freakonomics blog.
