Jan Dubois suggested that I upload my [0]MiniCPAN aging data to [1]"many
eyes", a nifty IBM data visualization project. I upload the data, you
make pretty pictures of it and embed it in websites.

I've created the [2]MiniCPAN aging data set and created a [3]"Perl" topic
hub. I don't think I need to do any more for you to play with the data.
If you have your own data about Perl things, add it to the topic hub.

To make the pretty pictures, you need some Java applet fu in your
browser. That doesn't work for me right now and I'm not going to worry
about it at the moment. There is a feature to "share" a visualization by
embedding some special HTML if you find a picture that you like.

Good luck, :)
