Hi all,

I'm an economist and a new website from the World Bank, http://data.worldbank.org is making a splash in my world.

I couldn't help but notice that this is clearly a Drupal site. I would recommend that we pursue the developers because a good write-up (should be) headed for the frontpage of Drupal.org. For example, check the graphs, tables, and other content. They also have a great set "gapminder"-ish graphs: http://devdata.worldbank.org/DataVisualizer/

In addition to the fact that it's a great looking site, I noticed the API, which will be wonderful for someone like me who uses their data regularly. I can now pull their "live" data into a statistical package (Stata, SAS, Excel, etc) with a single command. This is revolutionary!

Congratulations to the developers, whoever you are...
