the world as expressed by citynoise.

each dot represents a location featured in at least one citynoise article. the entire list on www.citynoise.org/hoods.php is featured. dots are a standard size regardless of how many postings the city may have (otherwise new york would blot out most of north america). of course, this map is only current as of the date of its posting.

NOTE: in the making of this, i found a couple of sites very useful. 1) mapquest's online world atlas at www.mapquest.com/atlas/. it's really good for major cities around the world. 2) google maps is still in beta, but it's particularly good for smaller cities and towns in the US and UK. it's at maps.google.com.

you are mad for the cataloguing! have you thought of a career in information management? i like this version - peter's projection is too fair and not ukcentric enough for my taste - i like to see the uk slightly too big and right in the middle like this, it makes me feel cozy

jeeff: YOU WIN TEH CITYNOISE for today! :D awesome!

ok, this is cool. how can we set up some mojo on the backend to get this sort of map automagically updated on the /noise page?

cause i wanna do it! and if you can help, come aboard! i have a CN dev account on atari now, which will let you get at it if youre interested. email me :)

elaine - i've never thought of such a career. i think i'm only interested in managing my own info.

speaking of maps, it was funny while living in japan to find out that they organize the continents opposite to the map above, so the pacific is the central ocean. this conveniently places japan right in the middle. it only struck me then that everyone really perceives themselves as being in the middle of it all. it was maybe my most valuable and all-pervasive lesson learned from living abroad.

peter - i thought you'd like this. email on the way. my only question is... where is the /noise page?

fuzzytank: 20th May 2005 - 05:27 GMT

hehe my house/address wont show up in mapquest or google maps

the problem is delivery guys never find us

guess there are advantages to living in the mass of surburbia tho since its such a mess i could hide out for a looong time

elaine: 20th May 2005 - 06:52 GMT

quite right jeeff, they say you should never professionalise something you love, and while we all have to make a living, every time anyone ever suggests a way of me making something commercially successful out of my work i tend to resist it, but it is usually based on my perception of their understanding of what makes me tick, and what makes the work tick. i am still trying to refine a colouring books and crayons lifestyle which would also pay..
but i know someone who did an information management postgrad. it made her allergic for a little while and she had to stay with her old job til she overcame her natural revulsion, but i guess she did the MA for a reason, and she will find her niche eventually. sadly for her, east germany fell so he r job at the stasi will never be realised

Peter: jeeff: er... /hoods i mean!
