What just happened?

beautiful, beautiful piece of art and engineering.

Id seen some of the RaphaelJS demos, so I knew this was coming.. but honestly was expecting this stuff to become a product in about 2 to 3 years time... and this guys integrated the whole shebang.

I just want to see the same thing happen with data - people will realize that most data is a graph and not a table, when and only when we can demo something that's fluid, has the same qualities of immediacy and usability and solves a real problem [for which the spreadsheet is the current workaround]...

Each component of this might have been done before, but the combination is a new new thing we all knew was just around the corner.
