Google Public Data

The title says it all.  Google added public data into their search about 8 months ago.  Now, this feature is becoming a real asset to those of us who often are hunting down economic indicators and other public data.  As of last week, 17 indicators from the World Bank are included in this search.  So, if you are looking for CO2 emission data, or life expectancy, your search got easier.  Searching for "gdp of finland" will yield a nice graph of GDP development for Finland over recent year (49 to be exact in this case).  For a more complete story on this issue, see the official Google blog here: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/11/world-bank-public-data-now-in-search.html
