16 Oct 2009A funky little interactive map from USA Today. Click on a state on the map and the appropriate little dot on the sorted chart on the right will highlight to show you it’s ranking. When you change the indicator using the drop down box at the top (jobs created/total funds awarded/total funds received/unemployment rate) the dots in the chart all bounce around and resort themselves.
Updated July 29th. The best part is the lower chart showing the latest data for each of the 11 “leading indicators”.

USAToday Economic Outlook Index
In: Finance Housing Interactive Reference Source: USA Today Updated regularly US Economy
11 Jun 2009USA Today and IHS Global Insight have created a new USA economic outlook index based on 11 “leading” indicators. The interactive charts are very well done, with roll-over data point info, and an explanation of what each indicator means. Notes at the bottom of the page describe how the methodology differs from the Conference Board’s “leading indicators”. They plan to update it monthly. USAtoday has come a long way from the crappy charts they used to produce (ok, a lot of them are still crappy – but this one’s damn good).
(note: I spotted this one because Utah has crappy newspapers and my only option for any actual news of the world was USAToday)
