Gapminder
One of my blog readers, Tao, shows me that gapminder has now its google tools version. Hans Rosling is a very good swedish friend who spoke at TED, at my conference LeWeb3 and finally joined Google in California. Play with Hans' tool Gapminder and change your vision of the world, it is getting more balanced. Have a look at this comparison between France and India, also showing how Singapour is now ahead of France. The World is more and more flat. Congrats, Hans.

Lovely tool!

Singapore may have catch up France but compare to the big blot China, the speed of growth is really nothing.

You are right abut Singapore! I had not looked at that before. Change the vertical to Child Mortality Rate ... quite a trend!

About

Welcome to my blog. Based in San Francisco, I am an entrepreneur and a blogger. I just started my fifth startup, Seesmic, a community driven video social software. Here is what TechCrunch says about it.

I am blogging every day a video on loic.tv about (almost) everything I do as I start Seesmic, I also constantly post short thoughts to twitter and often my pictures on Flickr.

I also organize every year in Paris the conference LeWeb3 that gathers more than a thousand bloggers and entrepreneurs from 40 countries on Dec 11 and 12.

If you would like to learn more, here is a bio, my LinkedIn profile, my wikipedia pages in english and french. Sometimes they are subject to changes that do not always reflect what I consider the truth but that is the principle.

You may also want to subscribe to my RSS feeds in English, French or my video podcast feed.
