The Map Room: A Weblog About Maps
Founded:
2003

Information

Website:
Company Overview:
A blog about maps by Jonathan Crowe, The Map Room covers everything from map collecting to the latest in geospatial technology.

Mission:
The Map Room points to maps, map collections, map-related resources, and material about maps on the web. Anything that fits under that rubric, from medieval mappæ mundi to satellite imagery, and from topo maps to Tolkien, is fair game.

Launched in March 2003, The Map Room is aimed at a broad audience. While GIS professionals and cartographers seem to enjoy reading it, it’s meant to be accessible to anyone with nothing more than an interest in maps.

Facebook app whereyougonnabe? gets an upgrade focusing on integration with other platforms (previously). Diana Eid takes a look at map art, focusing on three artists we’ve seen before: Matthew Cusick, Elisabeth Lecourt and Susan Stockwell (via GeoCarta).

Going to be a couple of days before I can post about the Virtual Earth and Google Earth updates; I'm going to need a little more time than I currently have to *try* them.

In my entry on the controversial Absolut Vodka ad, I called for your best shot at a fake Absolut ad on a controversial cartographic theme. Post them to the Photos section (right-hand sidebar). Have fun!
