Let's map us some news!

I went looking for some more news map type stuff tonight for the fun of it.

Ethan Zuckerman at Harvard Law School has been running an interesting news mapping program for awhile. It shows which countries various media outlets are paying the most attention to on any given day (goes back to 2003).

Buzztracker has one of the more (initially) attractive designs I've seen, but it's too busy and can't be zoomed in to small areas, world map only view.

Good lord, Zuckerman didn't even label the countries on his map. How the hell am I supposed to know what any of them are?!?!
