<p align="justify"><b>O uso de mapas em sites informativos tem permitido dar uma nova perspectiva sobre alguns tipos de acontecimentos. Até os noticiários televisivos usam o Google Earth para nos levar até ao &#8220;onde&#8221;. Mas há sites que usam os mapas para criar hiper-localidade. No exemplo acima, o site <a href="http://www.globalincidentmap.com/" target="_blank">GlobalIncidentMap</a> mostra-nos onde ocorreram eventos terroristas e outras actividades suspeitas. </b></p>
<p align="justify"><b>Mas há outras aplicações disponíveis: no <a href="http://www.rottenneighbor.com/" target="_blank">Rotten Neighbor</a></b> <b>podemos conhecer a vizinhança antes de ir morar para o bairro, ou queixarmo-nos dos nossos vizinhos. </b></p>
<p align="justify"><b>Outros projectos, talvez mais interessantes por aplicarem o conceito de hiper localidade, são o  <a href="http://www.chicagocrime.org/">chicagocrime.org</a> (<a href="http://www.holovaty.com/blog/archive/2008/01/31/0102" target="_blank">offline desde o dia 1 de Fevereiro de 2008</a>)e o <a href="http://www.everyblock.com/">EveryBlock</a> , do <a href="http://www.holovaty.com" target="_blank">Adrian Holovaty</a> , onde a vida das cidades é analisada a partir do local onde as coisas aconteceram. O que levanta a questão se será que  conhecemos as ruas onde passamos todos os dias?</b></p>
<p align="justify"><b>De qualquer forma, o potencial do uso de mapas em sites dedicados a um tema específico é enorme. Em Portugal, o mapa que se aplicava já era o dos acidentes nas estradas. Alguém quer pensar nisso?</b></p>

<td style="width:300pt;padding:0 5.4pt;" align="justify" valign="top" width="310">
<p align="justify"><b>Maps use on the internet has allowed to take a whole new perspective over some types of events. Even the TV newsrooms use Google Earth  to fly us to the &#8220;where&#8221;. But there are websites that use maps to create   hyper-locality. In the example above, thw website  </b><b><a href="http://www.globalincidentmap.com/" target="_blank">GlobalIncidentMap</a> shows us where terrorist events and other suspicious activities have occurred, around the world.</b></p>
<p align="justify"><b>But there are other applications available for maps: at </b><b><a href="http://www.rottenneighbor.com/" target="_blank">Rotten Neighbor</a> we can &#8220;meet&#8221; the neighbors even before moving in to the neighborhood, or complain about the ones we already have.</b></p>
<p align="justify"><b>Other projects, maybe more interesting as far the hyper local concept is concerned, are </b><b><a href="http://www.holovaty.com" target="_blank">Adrian Holovaty</a></b><b>&#8217;s  </b><b><a href="http://www.chicagocrime.org/">chicagocrime.org</a> (<a href="http://www.holovaty.com/blog/archive/2008/01/31/0102" target="_blank">offline from Feb 1st 2008</a>) and <a href="http://www.everyblock.com/">EveryBlock</a>, where city life is analyzed from where things happen. Which raises the question if we really know the streets we walk on everyday?</b></p>
<p align="justify"><b>Anyway, the potential of maps in theme websites is huge. </b></p>
<p align="justify"><b>In Portugal, the map we needed right now would be about road accidents. Does anyone want to take it? </b></p>
