It's a little more ethereal than that: Based in San Francisco, from <a href="http://www.exploratorium.edu/" target="_blank">the Exploratorium</a>, Cabspotting uses <a href="http://cabspotting.org/client.html" target="_blank">Cab Tracker</a> to follow and trace the path of 10 SF yellow cabs. The diagram looks like an otherworldly arterial system, rather than just a Google Map, and it's hauntingly beautiful, whether you happen to live here or not.</p> <p><span class="inline left"></span></p> <p>The Exploratorium has invited people to <a href="http://cabspotting.org/projects/" target="_blank">create art and projects</a> utilizing Cabspotting, so don't miss the work put up online - I love any Internet art galleries I can get my mouse on.</p> http://www.geeksugar.com/1632439#comment Website of the Day Cabspotting Fri, 16 May 2008 14:00:24 -0700 GeekSugar http://www.geeksugar.com/1632439
