Very interactive - Create graphs and stories over time with Census data in a graphically sophisticated and user-friendly/intuative platform. The data sets (indicators) seem to be limited for now, but the idea is strong.

That is a great interface they have for exploring things - a nice use of the GapMinder style.  Hopefully they'll tie the back-end to the data the World Bank opened up, and the UN data too.  It is important to keep looking for ways to distill those huge datasets down to something that tells a story!
