Tool he created (Gapminder) <--- Thanks everman for the link!

kinda slow site....I'd recommend watching though, he does some pretty amazing stuff linking wealth, health, poverty, and education in world countries. I guess he founded gapminder.org which gives public access to UN data regarding world issues.

Nice link....those who don't want to watch, the speaker used a similar program to the one linked to display the correlations between growth, education, poverty, mortality, ect. ect.....very interesting data.
