Surfing to .. Luxembourg
The Statistics Portal of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg has a Home page (http://www.statistiques.public.lu/en/index.html ) that is too long for a standard screen and requires scrolling to get to important items such as the links to surveys in progress and … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Greece
Greece has been in the news again this past week and it reminded me that I had not yet visited their statistical website (http://www.statistics.gr/portal/page/portal/ESYE ). The site is the first referenced in a Google search for ‘Greece Official statistics’ but the … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Estonia
As last month, Estonia is also one of the more recent members of the European Union. Their Statistics Office (http://www.stat.ee/en) has an extremely long Home page (almost 5 screen depths) but all of the news stories have a key message … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Latvia
Latvia is one of the more recent members of the European Union and the Central Statistical Bureau of Latvia, Latvijas Statistika, has an inviting website Home page at http://www.csb.gov.lv/en. The use of different background colours in the top navigation is … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Myanmar
The Home page of the Central Statistics Organisation of Myanmar (https://www.csostat.gov.mm/) was very sparsely populated on the day of my visit. Several other links to the site appeared at the top of the references from a search for ‘Official statistics … Continue reading
Surfing to .. United Kingdom
The Home page of the United Kingdom’s Office for National Statistics (www.ons.gov.uk ) almost fits onto one screen. The missing graphic link on the right below the visible screen here is for the Census – reasonably important! A little reduction … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Ukraine
The country of Ukraine has been in the news much recently – but not from the statistical perspective. Some 10 years ago I went to assist the State Statistics Service of Ukraine (http://www.ukrstat.gov.ua/ ) with dissemination. The federal system of … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Indonesia
Southern Asia has been in the news recently so I decided to visit Statistics Indonesia (http://www.bps.go.id/eng/ ) whose website is in both English and Bahasa Indonesian. The English version of the site offers less than the Bahasa version both in … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Israel
Information from Israel is always interesting from a presentation perspective since the two languages – Hebrew and English – are used on the website Israel’s Central Bureau of Statistics (www.cbs.gov.il/engindex.htm ). In Hebrew the text reads from right to left … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Croatia
Zagreb is an interesting city with a beautiful central square. Just off the square is the main office of the Croatian Bureau of Statistics but we can access their output through the Internet at (http://www.dzs.hr/default_e.htm ). The Home page is … Continue reading
Surfing to .. Ghana
Another trip to Africa this month to see a different presentation of data. The Ghana Statistical Service (http://www.statsghana.gov.gh/ ) has a very neat Home page which is spoilt by the ticker tape news line and the inability of the user … Continue reading
