Default Tweet Map of the World - Phone Platform Breakdown

Pretty neat stuff - can go directly to Calgary or zoom out for full world view. Android, iOS, Blackberry and other.

It's actually interesting to look at certain demographic differences wrt to Blackberry - zoom in on downtown Toronto, and there is a decent concentration of BB tweets in the downtown core; enough to create bright spots.

Now do the same thing in Calgary, and there's almost none.

very interesting stuff...my only observation/complaint would be couldn't they have used a yellow or other brighter colour for bberry and other instead of plum and purple?

also interesting to see that iphone twitter posting used alot more in edmonton than android.

I like how there is a big burst of 'other' (Windows phone for the most part) in the Seattle area.

That's pretty neat. I'm kind of surprised that there wasn't more blackberry use up in Ft. Mcmurray, but then again I guess it is based on twitter use, not phone use.

People with iPhones like twitter. And Indie rock. And lattes. And thick black rimmed glasses with scarves.
