Links roundup 7 October 2011

It's been a busy week here at Rckt HQ, mainly due to the mathematical conundrum of staff being off on holidays, yet loads of work still needing to be done, so only a few links to share today:

Graphs and stats

• Google Analytics goes real-time (instead of a 24 hour delay)
• We really like the Civic Dashboard designed by Mudlark for Birmingham City Council (blog post) - visualising real time customer service data 

And finally...

• A headless robo-dog developed for the US Military. Check out the second video!
• The design of Music's homepage precisely sums up the process of redesigning one's site (via @devolute)

Follow us on @rcktsheffield on Twitter for a steady stream of interesting links throughout the week.
