Swivel - for the data driven

Swivel is a data, number crunching, graph oriented, chart mecca for those who are so inclined. The site was launched in December 2006 as the brainchild of two physics majors. Swivel has now reached an important milestone with its one millionth graph. Swivel was designed for users to share data so you can upload your own and have others explore your findings.

If you are curious about say - Verizon's upload speeds compared to T-Mobile, or whether you are in the top 1% income bracket ($238,000 annually), or what the most educated cities are, then you will find a lot to love about Swivel. Another cool thing is you can compare all different kinds of data in a single graph and find correlations. I can see all kinds of arguments I lost in the past that would have been so much more in my favor, if only I had that readily accessible chart or graph or something. Now that data is well within reach - it's tagged, easily search-able, and I can have my data within a click or two.
