Amsterdam Real Time - Waag Society
This is SO cool. A group of people in Amsterdam are using GPS to create personalized maps of the city. They record their movements using GPS, then plot them as a graphic. The result is a map of the city as seen through the movements of its citizens. It makes me think of how cool it would be to map out the city of Seattle through the movements of my friends. There would be nodal points where people meet, for example, the meeting of east-siders and west-siders at our workplace, the meeting of my gaming group at my place, and of feng's group at his place.
