Nice.

A street map made up of over 900 film titles.

The Map, which is loosely based on the style of a vintage Los Angeles street map has its own Hollywood Boulevard and includes districts dedicated to Hitchcock and Cult British Horror movies. Like most cities it also has its own Red Light area. There’s an A-Z key at the base of the Map listing all the films featured with their release dates and names of the directors.

Storymap is a Google Map of Dublin dotted with little speech bubbles, each of which links to a location-specific mini-film: personal reminiscences, local history and random snippets of Dublinia.

Above: the entry for Dame Lane wherein cartoonist Tom Mathews gives his take on the Universal Hair Studio’s Why Go Bald? sign.

Huge potential, well worth an extended browse and you can submit your own story here.

Abraham Ortelius’ 1598 map of Ireland.

We’ve seen poppadoms that look more like Ireland than this.
