Went on an English Heritage members only tour of Fort Widley. Fort Widley is one of the forts surrounding Portsmouth dockyard to prevent it being attacked from the land.
A view of the map room in the nuclear bunker under Fort Widley in the old magazine. One of the "Cold War" Civil Defence Centres.

Constructive and destructive comments are always welcome! Don't be shy and say something about the picture :) feedback is always useful.
Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. BBN is the random scatter of green in the middle (early ARPANET). Sprint is the organized star topology in purple near the top. AOL is a gray disconnected island in the lower center. There is little correlation between this network connectivity graph and physical geography, except for a clustering of Pac Rim connectivity.
Here is a gallery of Internet maps by Ches of Lumeta, and Ben below provides a link to a huge map with labels.
This technique can also see the network “lights go out” during wartime bombing raids.
In a nutshell, they use a modified hacker trick of sending a storm of IP packets out randomly across the network. Each packet is programmed to self-destruct after a delay, and when this happens, the packet failure notice reports back the path the packet took before it died. To visualize this sea of data, Ches applied place & route software from the semiconductor CAD industry to untangle the hairball of data and spread it out in a 2D map that humans can easily absorb. In these maps, one can see security gaps and unknown network connections. (disclosure: we invested them when they spun out of Bell Labs)

To view the live map visit www.whatsthatpicture.com/flickr/commons-map.php
In the past I've posted about some experiments I had done with Flickr Commons images on Google Earth and the Layar mobile phone Augmented Reality browser - see www.whatsthatpicture.com/2011/12/mapping-flickr-commons
I have recently also got a web version up and running using OpenStreetMap and whilst it's not quite as slick as I'd like it top be I thought I'd throw it out to you to get some feedback - see www.whatsthatpicture.com/flickr/commons-map.php
Note that for performance reasons it will only show 250 images at a time, but you'll always see at the bottom the total number of Commons images there are in the region displayed. To see more just zoom in and pan around. If you want a good region to try it out in I'd suggest heading to Ireland, as shown in the above screen capture!
Insert to a 1963 British Railways staff propaganda publication with a foreword by one Dr Beeching!
It wouldn't fit nicely in the scanner, so I've had to crop a little on all three to include the most of mainland UK.

Map of Tuscany showing (among other cities) Pisa, Livorno, Lucca, Pistoia, San Gimignano, Siena and Florence. The map is painted on a wall in the small town San Miniato. And, let's be honest, they kinda exaggerated the size of their own town :-)
NL:
Kaart van Toscane met daarop (onder andere) de steden Pisa, Livorno, Lucca, Pistoia, San Gimignano, Siena en Florence. De kaart is op een oude muur geschilderd in het plaatsje San Miniatio. En, laten we eerlijk zijn, de inwoners van San Miniatio hebben de grootte van hun eigen stadje lichtelijk overdreven :-)
For those of you who want to know where I took this shot; check it out in Street View!
Pratt Connector trail map from the Forest Service contract document.
Update 6 years later - This trail has been built and has been in use for several years now. It's a great walk and provides reasonably easy access to the Pratt Valley.

Metro, Subway, Tube, Underground. Different names for the same thing. Many cities have one and they all have maps so we can use them. Some are schematic, such as the London Underground Map, some are more geographically realistic, like the New York Subway Map, but they are all works of art in their own right. Now what if the cities of the world were linked by a metro system? Well that's what I've done here my with my artistic interpretation of a World Metro Map.
The design leans more towards the realistic style (New York Subway Map) rather than schematic style (London Underground Map). I felt this makes it visually appealing yet still easily recognizable.
The downside of taking the more realistic approach was evident in the dense area of Europe. It was difficult to choose the cities for this region due to the limited space available. Whilst some locations didn't make it to the finished artwork, I feel that the major historic cities of Europe are well represented.
