"Worldmapper is a collection of world maps, where territories are re-sized on each map according to the subject of interest."
#6 on the Top 10 list of 2011 resources is this mapping website that provides us with another way to present global datasets in a way that is more visually appealing and more intuitive to analyze and interpret the patterns. Among the many compelling cartograms on this site is this one showing the prevalance of HIV, highlighting the disproportionate impacts of AIDS/HIV in Sub-Saharan Africa. Via Seth Dixon

This is not on the Top 10 list, only because it receives my "Best Geography Twitter App of the Year Award." This is a great site that combines the power of geography, social media and geospatial technologies. You can map where your twitter followers are (if they make the data publicly available). Additionally, you can pan, zoom and identify specific followers and map their networks. Can you find yourself on this map (followers of @APHumanGeog)?
