But what you can do is to copy data from Gapminder World to your gadget. Try finding the data set of your interest from the data page where we link back to the data provider and to the actual spreadsheet. Best regards.

Congratulations! How can I integrate my own data with the data that is already available in your program? Is there a way to add from google doc my columns of data from countries to your data? As I probably have countries in a different order, is it possible to combine this? Thanks Ludovic Hi

I am jealous of Hans Rosling! He has presented lovely displays of variation by leading his audience into comparisons of large things, and then showing that the smaller things they contain vary enormously. I would love to be able to do that, too. Any and all advice is welcome.

(Have you heard about anyone else?) Using the Google Docs Motion Chart Gadget, I have a problem with data exporting, the script does not seem to work, the chart appears empty with this error : "Missing required parameter : container Error 404" Any hint?

But Im trying to view the IDH (UNDP indicator) and as it is appear in Gapminder im trying to construct by myself. The problem is in google docs, when I click to apply in the 6th step... 5. Click Insert > Gadget (Choose Motion Chart) 6. Select the columns you want as range and click Apply. then appear the next comment: "There should be at least three columns in the data" I try to sign all the colums, now I have 6, but always the same message.

I ran by coincidence into information on gapminder. I will use gapminder technology [hopefully] with disease surveilance data set and with crimes data sets. I am a Professor Statistics, and I would like to contact Professor Hans Rosling. Maybe his work could be linked with the work of Professor Martin Kulldorff (Harvard). Thanks.

Instead of setting an empty cell as "0", the whole column is considered "non-numeric" and can't be displayed in the animation. I wonder if this problem could be solved in the code, before I have to manually replace every empty cell with a 0.... Thanks, Nick Dear Gapminder team,
I’m experiencing some trouble lately, because the Google Motion chart doesn’t seem to recognize columns, that include empty cells. Instead of setting an empty cell as “0″, the whole column is considered “non-numeric” and can’t be displayed in the animation. I wonder if this problem could be solved in the code, before I have to manually replace every empty cell with a 0….
Thanks,
Nick
