Website Of The Day: Fast Food Maps
Today's website of the day Fast Food Maps certainly isn't the most useful, or healthy site I've found, but it offers that oh-so-greasy quick fix we all crave every once in a while in the form of an innovative mashup site. (Shhh, don't tell Fit!)
The site combines google maps with the location of fast food restaurants in more than 50 cities across the United States. Last time I checked there were 49,747 McDonald's, In-N-Out, Burger King, Pizza Hut etc.

I am so tripped out by it! I had to share with you all! :o Check it out!2008 Presidential Election Maps
Since I'm a giant nerd, I always seek out election result maps by county - I'm really intrigued by outcome break-downs at that level because it's interesting to see how a few key areas can drive an entire state. Cartograms are even more fun, as they really give you a better sense of population and overall stake than straight, scaled results maps. So, when I was Googling "election 2008 county map" last night, I was delighted to find all the information, maps, and cartograms on this site:

It's worth a quick peruse, and if you're not familiar with cartograms, those are explained on the page also.

Electoral Map Calculator
From latimes.com Here's my scenario: Think it's pretty self-explanatory. I gave a few traditionally red states to Obama, the ones that are leaning towards him...he will win.
