Mapping The Social Media Global Clusters:
Social Media cartographer Eric Fischer has
created this map illustrating physical movement and the movement of tweets:
green denotes physical movement; purple is @replies from someone in one
location to someone in another; white is a combination of the two.
According to a 2010 study, about 21% of Indonesians are on Twitter, making them
the most Twitter-addicted nation. Possible reasons for this might include their
large population (nearly 240 million), cheap access to mobile devices and
English as a commonly spoken language.
This is a map of Europe which is
shown by clusters of users using Flickr and users that are tweeting
This is a map of North America and the clusters shows Flickr users density vs and Tweeters
Eric Fischer has created these great comparisons of geotagged content from Flickr and Twitter. The red dots are locations of Flickr photographs, the blue dots are locations of tweets and the white dots are locations that have been posted to both. From these maps, you can see the different areas where these two networks have been used, giving an idea of how they’ve spread across the world.
