Worldwide Data Sharing Website

Posted by matt on Thu, 07/12/2006 - 12:51am in

A new data sharing & analysis website, Swivel, describes itself as the Youtube for Data, and I would think that if they do manage to establish an unparalleled ease of use, they might get there.

Swivel allows users to share or compare ANY type of data easily - either via the free pPblic data collation / sharing / analysis model, or via the paid Private data collation / analysis model.

Swivel is putting significant computing power behind the scenes to run the data analysis. “We use farms of powerful computers and algorithms at the Swivel data centers to transform a lonely grid of numbers and letters into hundreds - sometimes thousands - of graphs that can be explored and compared with any other public data in Swivel.”
