I think Tweemap does this kind of thing for any Twitter user. (though it seems to be undergoing maintenance at the moment…)

Very cooll; but I think what would make the data visualization even more actionable is if the Twitter data it depends on for population and analysis was more descriptive. Things like industry (not everyone ID’s it in their profile bio), for example, or a sense for whether the account is used primarily for personal/social use, or for business/networking. Descriptives like these would make targeting capabilities even better, so you know if you’re dealing with a 16-year old following his friends, or a 25-year old that might be that much more interested in your brand. But that’s more a comment on Twitter – and less on the data visualization itself.

Not everyone shows up. Every dot does not represent a single person. Some dots represent many people stacked on top of each other with the same location. The heatmap actually gives a better idea of where people are, and their density.

There are also a few weird results due to the way some people state their location.

Where do you live? What’s your Twitter name?
