And I decided it would be fun to play with the <a href="http://maps.yahoo.com/">Yahoo! Maps <span class="caps">API</span></a>, because everyone else seems to be using <a href="http://maps.google.com/">Google</a>&#8217;s. So I set about trying to visualize <a href="http://www.twitter.com/">Twitter</a> posts geographically.</p> <p>Turns out, that&#8217;s pretty darn easy. (Probably why it&#8217;s already <a href="http://twittervision.com/">been</a> <a href="http://twittermap.com/maps">done</a>, but that&#8217;s okay.)</p> <p>What I&#8217;ve got is a first cut, but <a href="http://twitter.nicholasjon.com/">I&#8217;m pretty happy with it</a>. So now I&#8217;m curious? What else should it the map do? Let me know in the comments.</p> Fri, 11 May 2007 05:27:11 GMT http://nicholasjon.com/permalink/2007/4/30/twitter_fun nicholasjon@nicholasjon.com (Nick)
