Map Post #11



I’ve seen other maps related to Wikipedia before, but this one is pretty interesting. It shows the Wikipedia edits over the course of one day, each edit is symbolized by the abbreviation for the language it was written in. The color scheme reminds of a Lite Brite, thanks to the monochromatic background and colorful symbols. There’s a temporal element to the map, which begins at midnight on July 29, 2011. Simple zoom options are available, but the legends are hidden when zoomed in.
