This is a fascinating mash-up of Netflix movie rental rankings by neighborhood for 10 major US cities; you can see the position of each of the top 100 total flicks for 2009. It would be interesting to dwell on the site a bit and compare tastes among neighborhoods and between cities and then theorize on what is driving these preferences, but its getting late.
A fascinating show comparing view of cities before and after major events such as wars (Kabul - shown above), natural catastrophes (San Francisco), or speculative bubbles (Dubai). I've seen the Detroit photos before an they show in an unmatched way the deterioration of that once-fine (yes, I said Detroit was "fine") city.
Surprisingly, the list includes 4 from North & South America (the Darien Gap, the "Death Road" in Bolivia, Rute 5 in Chile, and Alaska Route 11). Less surprising are two roads in China, the Russian "Federal Highway" (shown above) connecting Moscow and Yakutsk, Siberia, the Kabul-Kandahar connection in Afghanistan (no surprise there), and some stunning looking views in Europe. No texting while driving on any of these roads, of course, regardless of what local laws may say.
