where in the world is carmen sandiego?

ok, rarely do i do these things, but i thought this was neat. select the states you’ve visited, get a map with those states in red. i’m a sucker for information visualizations. plus i was curious to “see” where i’ve been.

explanation:

  • lived in new york, texas, north carolina
  • vacationed in maine
  • visited relatives in connecticut, indiana, ohio, kentucky, missouri
  • touristed boston, dc, richmond, new orleans, san jose, san francisco, ft. lauderdale

as far as i’m concerned, driving through and flying or laying over in states does not count. i’m expecting a comment from one of the parental units re: some obvious state i forgot.

Justin, great tool. This is a great one for my students in J50 to use when they create their first websites later this semester.

See the map on my personal page for another cool tool for mapping your travels.

It’s not fair that those of us who’ve not been to the big states look like we’ve hardly been anywhere at all!
I get Cali, but only because I spent a week in San Francisco when I was 15!
You people who just look like savvy travellers can kiss my black ass.
