Here's a wonderful site to bookmark.
NationMaster provides a quick way to explore those
'I wonder ...' questions when you're reading the newspaper or researching a topic.
NationMaster combines a massive statistical data base with some great tools to compare nations. Interested in murder rates? The per cent of people who will die before turning 60? Tax rates across the world? You'll find it all here.
They've just, in April, introduced a companion site with state statistics. The range here is still sparse, but these folks have proven they have what it takes to build a useful, interesting site.
By the way, if you'd like something interesting to do, they are looking for volunteer editors for both sites.
