Blog 15: People Powered Maps

I found this interesting series of maps on the BBC News web site.
It shows different countries and what areas are more populated.

If you check your own country, you probably won't be surprised by the results, but it is interesting to visit some other countries and see if you really want to spend your vacation visiting that overpopulated city or rather visit the more quiet areas of the country.

The source of the maps is here at WorldMapper, if you want to see more people-powered maps of other countries or even a map of the world. It also has animated maps showing world maps by income, age-of-death, internet users and much more. A nice visual way to learn something else about the world.
