Onion Map
- ilamont 18y agoI was expecting some sort of mashup using stories from The Onion, but was sorely disappointed.
- hendler 18y agoOk, so it's not THE onion, but it is fun looking. Like Sim City - though I miss Godzilla. Good start. Google mashup might have been easier, or fire eagle data more compelling.
- ardit33 18y agoGreat Idea, but it really needs some serious polishing. I see it being very useful for tourists, and/or if you are looking to moving to a new place. I like the "Big Mac" index. In the US, I use the "Starbucks Late" index, when compare costs between cities. They seem to reflect the local cost of living pretty well.
- kirubakaran 18y agoLatte Index http://money.cnn.com/2004/01/16/news/funny/latteindex/ http://money.cnn.com/2004/01/16/news/funny/latteindex/ I wonder what this kind of variation tells us: 'Starbucks latte and the Big Mac cost $2.80 in the United States. In Hong Kong, a tall latte is $3.22, but a Big Mac is only $1.54'
- shard 18y agoStarbucks latte and the Big Mac cost $2.80 in the United States. In Hong Kong, a tall latte is $3.22, but a Big Mac is only $1.54 My first instinct is that the Hongkongnese don't drink coffee.
- kirubakaran 18y agoMay be. But the two products target completely different demographics.
- Angostura 18y agoAnyone had any luck getting the help/how to use pages to come up? Interesting that it still lists the Mayor of London as Ken Livingstone, who was elected out back in May.
- kul 18y agoi like this, but what's with the odd name?
- adnam 18y agoPretty cool. Had a look at BCN and spotted my house :) Need to be able to zoom. What's it all about?
- sharp 18y agoA 'global people map' that doesn't mention Africa?
- morbidkk 18y agoany competitors in this space?
