US Migration Patterns in Google Earth.
Google Earth Community (GEC) member ‘giasen’, who produced the cool-looking world oil consumption charts last month, has now used his exploding 3D shape charts technique to show US migration patterns

I was only somewhat surprised to find out that the state I live in, North Carolina, had the most number of people moving to it. It’s just unfortunate so many people have found out how nice it is to live here. Here’s his post.
