worldmapper

Worldmapper is a fascinating collection of world maps, or cartograms, re-sizing territories on each map according to specific variables. Large amounts of statistical data are thus visualized into different 'world views'. The collection is not complete yet but will eventually contain 366 maps on all kinds of subjects.

Update: Another great data visualization tool is Gapminder, which uses animated timelines to make statistics come 'alive'. (Via Jeroen.)
