Places and Spaces: Mapping Science is a great site for a wide variety of interesting maps. Some highlights are:

Carte du Tendre (Map of Affection or Tenderness). I can only imagine what lurks in La Mer Dangereuse.

Ph.D. Thesis Map by Dr. Keith V. Nesbitt. I’m still trying to figure out which step on the path towards a Ph.D. corresponds to Picadilly Circus.


History of Science Fiction by artist Ward Shelley. This is the last item on that page and the image is one that’s flitting around the narcissismagoria (blogosphere / twitterverse / facehole).
