Mappr by Josh Rubin
Mappr, developed by Stamen Design, is a place based interface to the Flickr photo database that enables a new slant on photo viewing and provides some relatively fascinating ethnographic research. You can search for images by keyword, date or region. For now it only shows the images in the Mappr Flickr group, but in the Spring it should be up and running with all public groups.

Enter part or all of any name and this little Java application will dynamically plot how many babies were given that name during each decade, instantly giving you a sense of when (if ever) that name was popular. I already knew Josh was...
