This quote from Carl Sagan has been doing the rounds, but I wanted to check the source. It turns out it’s from The Demon-Haunted World.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, given their evidently shaky grasp of social media, the Shard’s inauguration website turns out to have difficulty grasping the concept of timezones.

On the Powerhouse Museum’s weblog, a “repository and sounding board for discussions around digital media and its use in museums.” Seb Chan asks:
is this some kind of emergent co-collaborative net-art?

Screenshots of Oliver O’Brien’s Geodemographics of Housing in Great Britain, a map of the 2010 Index of Multiple Depravation in the style of Charles Booth’s famous Poverty Map of the late 1800s. Read more here.

The last three photos show one of the more interesting (to me, anyway) parts of this map: the divide between Waltham Forest (largely red and orange) and Redbridge (largely green) in east London. The areas always felt somewhat similar in terms of housing stock to me, but they show up very differently here. Perhaps part of that is transport related: the railway you can see running through the latter is the Central line, which goes directly to the middle of the city.

I’m not sure why these are showing up in the place of labels on Google Maps at the moment, but I thought I’d take a screen shot anyway.
… ok, in trying to get a URL to it, I couldn’t. Perhaps it’s just OpenGL oddness. Ah well.
