#2Interestingly, Paris is where G+ is more used!

#3This is based off of the dat.globe, a project from Google's Data Vis people: http://code.google.com/p/webgl-globe/

#4Interestingly, Paris is where G+ is more used!
It's just a map of people who have added themselves, it has little if nothing to do with the actual distribution of G+ users. The project was created by three people in Paris which explains why it's the leader.

Looks like there are only a few thousand people. If HN'ers add themselves, we'll probably skew it. In fact, it might become of a HN Globe.

That's not quite as polished and visually stunning, though.

#8Well, this completely crashed my MacBook Pro. Although to be fair, I think it has to do with the fairly unreliable graphics card/drivers than anything else.

#9It would be interesting to also see activity per capita.

maybe it doesn't look as visually impressive, but actually in that twitter globe all the country borders are vector mapped.. whereas the google+ one is just a bitmap map of the world. Either way I'm liking that there are more of these WebGL 3D apps popping up.
