Ephemera in Stone
in cyberspace nobody can hear you scream

Here we go. Recession begets calls, strikes and demonstrations for protectionism; protectionism will beget depression.

But what interests me enough to post is that the Telegraph have put up a map of where the protests are happening. It’s on Google Maps, and they’ve annotated each of the locations with some detail of what’s actually happening there. They could put in a bit more detail, but it’s well done.

It being Google Maps, the annotations include links to get directions to/from the protests. Useful if you want to join in, perhaps, or want to start a counter-demonstration. I’m sure it’s not something the Telegraph would have included if they’d written their own map widget though.

This must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays.
