Earlier this week, I urged librarians to think about ways to tell your library’s story. Here is a cool post from Garr Reynolds’ Presentation Zen blog, “Hans Rosling and The Art of Storytelling with Statistics.” Check out what Reynolds has to say about using data and statistics as story, and then check out the latest Rosling video that demonstrates how Rosling uses data to tell a story.

Cool New Tabular Stats in WordPress!
I am normally not a numbers kind of girl, but I totally love the new tabular stats you can now view for your blog (or blogs!) in WordPress. You can read more at http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2008/08/23/tabular-stats/, but the highlights include stats in table form for:
- Months and Years
- Average per Day
- Recent Weeks
In the past, we have been able to view blog stats, but these new tables give us all kinds of new data to contemplate and explore. I especially love the comparative nature of the new tabular stats—for example, I now can easily see my blog stats for August 2008 compared to August 2007. Be sure to check out this terrific new feature!
