gCensus

I read an interesting article today on Slashdot entitled Making Sense of Census Data With Google Earth. The author of this post explains how Imran Haque has created a new program for Google Earth that takes information from the US Census Bureau and creates different layers over maps of the earth. Viewers can check these layers out to discover demographics of that area such as population ages, family size, race, etc. I am a huge fan of Google Earth and this new addition makes it even more incredible than it was before. Check it out for yourself!
