Swivel – a web2.0 home for statistic junkies


Cute site for addicts of statistics and charts, weird correlations and factoid-addicts. This is a social (user content, community, sharing, rating etc) site where people can either dump their favourite charts from their powerpoint, or can indulge in their love for data points…

Currently it’s a bit hit and miss, but a combination of a good search engine and user ratings should get to a decent balance of relevance, quality and humour. I’ll be watching.

In the meantime it’s like the strapline says:

Swivel is a place where curious people explore all kinds of data.
As a preview it’s rough around the edges. May your love for data guide you.

Love indeed.
