I love these motion charts that Google delivers:

http://www.google.com/publicdata/home

Unfortunately Government clients in NZ can;t use them as it is against the rules to store this data externally.

I know SAS JMP has this capability and you can export the motion charts as a flash file and embed it in the portal, but a portlet that allows these to be displayed dynamically in the Portal will be soooo cool.

Unfortunately even the new graph engine we are moving to doesnt provide these.

So need to move this from an idea to a delivery….
