Need some ideas for Xmas presies? Like the image of the cows on our contact page?

If the answer to either for these questions is yes, you got to check out this link. Our good friend Doug Lapsley has started selling his work on eBay. He’s got some fantastic shots for sale and as a final run up to Christmas he's reduced the price on all prints to £15 including free worldwide shipping!

If you like what you see check our his website: www.frozen-light.co.uk 

Oh and BTW, if you're into photography, check out the kit he uses and try not to drool all over your keyboard!

I need to share another TED I saw recently which has made quite an impression on me, for a couple reasons. One is how effective at communicating good data can be when applied in the right way and two about the revelations and dispelling of common myths that can come about when analysed in the way that Hans Rosling does so well.

Hans Rosling is professor of global health at Sweden’s Karolinska Institute and here he unveils new data visuals that untangle the complex risk factors of one of the world's deadliest (and most misunderstood) diseases: HIV. He argues that preventing transmissions (not drug treatments) is the key to ending the epidemic.

Guaranteed: You've never seen data presented like this.

Being a big fan of TED I thought it would be fitting to mention a talk done early this year by Tim Berners-Lee – the inventor of the World Wide Web. For his next project, he's building a web for open, linked data that could do for numbers what the Web did for words, pictures, video. Have a look, the possibilities seem endless!
