I remember seeing an open source JavaScript library for these, can someone please remind me what these are called and where I can find them?

Doughnut Charts

A doughnut chart (also spelled donut) is functionally identical to a pie chart, with the exception of a blank center and the ability to support multiple statistics at once. Doughnut charts are superior to standard pie charts as they provide for a better data intensity ratio. For example, the blank center can be used to display additional, related data as shown in the example.
