How the world has changed in 200 years 

I was shouted this on Digg today, and it’s a fascinating look at how the world has changed since 1809 in terms of life expectancy and wealth. Presented by Hans Rosling, the original is at Gapminder.

Hans does what few others manage, presenting Economics that anyone can understand.

Wouldn't it be good to see a similar analysis of corporate evolution.  
For more in the same vein, have a look at his TED presentation - one of the best presentations I’ve ever seen: http://jimdonovan.net.nz/2007/08/29/hans-rosling-one-of-the-best-presentations-ive-ever-seen/

Note

Entries from 2006 to the end of 2009 were done on the Blogger service. As of January 1, 2010, this blog has shifted to a Wordpress installation, with the latest posts here.
   With Blogger ceasing to support FTP publishing on May 1, I have decided to turn these older pages in to an archive, so you will no longer be able to enter comments. However, you can comment on entries posted after January 1, 2010.
