The Arab Powder Keg
An animated map of protests in the Middle East as they spread from country to country.
The protests that drove Hosni Mubarak out of power in Egypt were only the beginning of a wave of civil unrest that has boiled over into nearly all of the Middle East. Tunisia had already driven longtime President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali from office, and by the beginning of February, unrest had spread to Jordan, Lebanon, and Sudan. Many more countries were to follow. This map depicts the tides of protests and government retaliations day by day, beginning in Tunisia and ending with the unresolved conflict in Libya. You can click through the days one by one with the green arrows or choose "Autoplay." To get the big picture, just turn off the info boxes and crack up the speed.

http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?source=embed&hl=en&geocode=&aq=&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=215454646984933465708.00049c59184ae1136341a&ll=28.539164,17.464045&spn=8.711661,12.994689&t=h
Please use the link for more details of this map.
From this page:
This map has been created by compiling reports from trusted accounts on Twitter. Nonetheless, these reports are in general unconfirmed. This information should be considered in the context of there being absolutely no independent media in Libya when I started. This map is not automatically produced. Each posting is considered before it is mapped. These considerations have evolved over time as conditions on the ground have changed. If you have any questions you can contact me via Twitter @Arasmus.
You can also hear up-to-the-minute personal audio reports from people inside Libya by visiting: http://audioboo.fm/feb17voices
Here is a discussion of lessons learned from this project: http://goo.gl/67SxE I hope it will be of some use to others thinking about similar projects.
