The Hans Rosling video The Joy of Stats is now online. It is a bit long, almost an hour, but is a good intro to what Rosling has been saying about how statistics can be used to help people. He also makes the point that increasingly powerful computers make bigger and bigger volumes of data usable by humans.
A while ago I blogged about a TED talk that Rosling did using animated graphics to show changes in statistics from the third world. Still worth a look if you don't have time for the Joy of Stats.
