Click the screen capture or click here to see it in real time.

“This map shows all trains (yellow pins) on the London Underground network in approximately real time. Live departure data is fetched from the TfL API, and then it does a bit of maths and magic.”

EDIT: Seems to be a bit buggy. Patience please.

San Francisco: Valencia shops

Valencia is home to a number of unique shops selling a variety of odd and interesting items. From a shoe store with an oven baking fresh cookies at the register, to entire stores dedicated to hand-made stationery. Earlier we featured a Pirate Supply shop. Some of the stores are clearly trend setters, the type of places that inspire similar creations in other cities and countries years later. Here are photos from some of our favorites including The Curiosity Shoppe, Viracocha, Paxton Gate, and Paxton Gate’s Curiosities For Kids.
