Heh. This is worth the cost of admission: CivicSpace Labs: New Map of North America.
Update: Tim Bray has yet another map, one induced by sleep deprivation and accompanied by an explanation: Link.

Found at Joi Ito’s Web: Someone at CNN.com has a sense of humor…. Just doing my part to spread the love.
[Update: Apparently, the culprit is someone at Netscape, a CNN partner.]
As for the election, I’m very disappointed. Kerry may have been a bit wooden, and may have not been as repetitive and focused as the populace would have liked, but four more years of Bush is terrifying —not just for me, but for the whole world, it seems. Say what you will of Dan Gillmor, but I believe he’s right when he says:
There’s no secret about what’s coming. We don’t have that excuse this time.

Short but sweet article on Newsforge about an Even tastier del.icio.us. I use the Firefox extensions quoted within all the time, and I’ve learned (mainly through guesswork) about constructing URLs for adding tags. This article gives a few more hints about ways to use del.icio.us effectively, including a method for backing up your bookmarks and using the OS X client cocoal.icio.us. (But enough of the icio.us jokes, already!)
Since setting del.icio.us as my browsers’ home page, I must admit that I’ve found a hundred really interesting sites that I would never have tripped upon otherwise. This is not to mention the exploration of tags and other people’s bookmarks. If you haven’t given it a whirl yet, I highly recommend it.
