I have both posted a list of news sites and blogs, where you can find out more - and also a bunch of links to usefull tools.

Tableau Public
Data visualization tool build by IBM oftenly used espcially for very information heavy spread sheets - as for example budget sheets into more clear parts.

Google Fusion Tables
The industry standard when journalists are playing with many dots or polygons on the same map.

Datawrapper.de
Super easy web interface to make the most used diagram types. Correct your data in Excel, copy/paste and then you're working and afterwards you can embed your diagrams. Very easy to correct, but not unlimited opportunities for fitting the content.

Statwing.com 
Diagram and data analyzis tool in a very nice interface.

Google Chart Playground
This tool can auto generate a lot of diagrams. This is especially good to infographics on Google Fusion maps.
