Two links



I found two links to geovisualization topics on the web that I think are pretty interesting. The first one is a link to a few images from the book The Atlas of the Real World. The maps are global in extent and use some program to distort the countries based on the map topic.

The above link comes from a newspaper. I found the website that houses all of the imagery and data. It is really interesting and one could spend a lot of time on this site. So, beware. It is great for procrastination, though.

The next link is to a website that
charts baby names. It is called Baby Name Wizard. It has a graph section and a mapping section.
