Conor McGarrigle's insight:

cartogram.js is a JavaScript implementation of an algoritm to construct continuous area cartograms, by James A. Dougenik, Nicholas R. Chrisman and Duane R. Niemeyer, ©1985 by the Association of American Geographers. 

This example combines TopoJSON-encoded boundaries of the United States from Natural Earth with 2011 US Census population estimates to size each state proportionally.
