That Super Bowl odds animation was a real eye-opener. Great job!

Ok, I can't remember the site, but it is an interactive graphing site that shows everything over a timeline. For example, you can watch birth rate over time for each country as a bubble and have the y axis be life expectancy.

I think google had one, but I can't find it.

There are a lot of them. You can also build them in things like R too.

I used this site though.

As always, 90% of the work is getting the data how you need it.

Not exactly what I was thinking of. It has some data that is already in it. There were 2 versions, one was google. Damn, this is annoying me that I can't think of it. Maybe it's gone now anyway.

Literally just popped into my head. Now I have to figure out if I can upload data!

If anyone wants access to an unbelievable amount of NFL data, I can help set you up to get it.

Just download R and RStudio and I'll share my code with you so you can get the data if you feel more comfortable playing in excel with it.


R for Windows - 3.6.3: https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/
RStudio Desktop - 1.2.5033: https://rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/#download
