We've had a live sales map for every Black Friday over the last 10 years. Somewhat refined it every year with the web becoming better and better.
The first ones were a bunch of divs over a png of the world, then canvas with SVG arcs, now webgl. It's a ridiculously busy time at Shopify each year and an event we take very seriously to get right.
