This is run by IBM, part of one of their research groups. It lets anyone upload data sets on anything at all and then display it using one of a number of visualisation methods such as statistical charts, maps, word trees or even tags. It’s completely free and anyone can use it. Nice looking website as well with tutorials on how to upload, and a blog.
The chart shown took 2005 data for the money earmarked by Federal Govt per state on a per capita basis. I.e. I’d guess it’s the total spent on each state divided by the number of inhabitants. Alaska came out well!
