Facebook Friendships

This is not new and I don't know if that underlying data are updated, but Interactive: Mapping the World's Friendships is really fun to explore.

It would make a great activity for a Cultural Geography class, especially when you compare social media friendships with, for example, migration and immigration patterns. This 3D migration visualization by Google Trends does not visualize actual immigration, but rather Google searches of the word migration in various countries.

Now compare that to actual data and you have a great research project.
