One of the more critical mashups for the fall season is the NFL TV Distribution Map. It is a fine line between having to watch MIN @ CLE vs DAL @ TB. Of course if you just listened to Denis Leary, you wouldn’t have this problem. Me? I’m still getting used to the Arizona Cardinals games not being blacked out at home.

So last night I go to pick up the latest SI Swimsuit edition to read the articles and noticed on the front cover there was a girl wearing a painted on map swimsuit. I can’t believe Microsoft and Google missed out on an opportunity to sponsor the shoot like that. Maybe next year Cloudmade will put a little OSM on the cover, so to speak.

Just the other day we were wondering over the RSP Architects coffee machine about if GeoCommons would ever have an API. Rather than actually ask Sean if there was one in the works, it is of course easier to forget about the conversion and wait for Sean to blog about it himself. What I assume is one of the first GeoCommons API (this example is running on Amazon’s EC2) applications out there, Navigating Washington which allows real time poll mapping in your browser or even a Blackberry or iPhone (no Windows Mobile device because no one uses those anymore). I find the application very interesting and integration with mobile devices is a smart idea. I’m anxious to see what Sean has planned with the API and how we can use it.
What can't maps do for you these days?

Brian Timoney has updated his Gulf Coast Energy Impact website with Hurricane Ike information. It also looks like Brian has gotten a sponsor for his work, IHS (who many might better know as the publisher of this).
