whatever the opposite of homesick is, that's what tube maps make me feel. v.cool, Cal
So the "tube" is your underground subway system, right? Even though this map means next to nothing for me, I still think it's a cool project. You were playing around with mapping coordinates to images, no?

Correct matt - "the tube" is the london underground subway system. It consists of 12 individual 'lines' with 272 interconnecting stations. We also have a mini railway called DLR (Docklands Light Railway) in docklands and a tram line south of the river.
The project is going to be similar to
nycbloggers, mapping web site owners to station locations.

Very nice; I'm sure it could play a mean game of Mornington Crescent, with little prompting.
Are there any easily-boltable UK rail maps around, out of interest?

Cal, have you written about how you made the London Bloggers site anywhere? Isn't it a nightmare to maintain?
Dude, its about 3:00 and you got some SLQ errors, you prolly know that already though.
