(another) US Unemployment Map
In: Employment Maps Source: NYT Updated regularly US Economy
9 Jul 2009Quite similar to the AP map I mentioned last month, the NYT has created a map of national unemployment (with data through May09). Some of the filters are interesting in this version:
Fancy Debt Clock
In: Finance Innovative Reference Updated regularly US Economy
8 Jul 2009Always depressing, this version of the debt clock includes running values of many different kinds of debt, GDP, trade deficits, unfunded liabilities, and other ways we are shooting ourselves in the foot every day. The “about” section is pretty bleak on source details (to put it mildly). Thanks to my friend Jenny Butler for the link.
Iraq Oil
2 Jul 2009Interactive map showing the results of recent oil and gas partnerships/negotiations/auctions. I found the map of the different oil fields interesting – considering how many maps of Iraq we’ve seen in the past 5 years, this is the first time I’ve seen this info. Will be updated over time.
Tackling Inflation
In: Finance Global Economy Source: FT Updated regularly US Economy
2 Jul 2009Interactive display of central bank interest rates. It would be useful if you could scroll in and enlarge the last couple years, obviously. It looks like they might update this regularly.
USA Today Economic Outlook Index (June edition)
In: Finance Housing Interactive Reference Source: USA Today Updated regularly US Economy
29 Jun 2009Updated June 24th. The best part is the lower chart showing the latest data for each of the 11 “leading indicators”.

29 Jun 2009Ok, obviously it’s NY Fed day at ChartPorn. Interactive PDF files (click on events to jump to more details) provide a detailed list of policy actions and events. It is supposedly updated the 1st of every month.
There is both a domestic version, organized by Fed Policy Actions/Market Events/Other Policy Actions:
And an international (G7) version, organized by Bank Liability Guarantees/Liquidity and Rescue Interventions/Other Market Interventions:
Yet Another Recovery Index
In: Bailout Employment Finance Housing Updated regularly US Economy
22 Jun 2009This one from Kiplinger. Pretty standard stuff – a color-coded summary and charts for each of six components. Uses a pretty weak (but easy to understand) recovery threshold: “When at least three of the six indicators go fully positive — with a check mark from us — it’s more than likely that the recession has ended.” The "watch for" section of each indicator are interesting.
NYC Murder Map
19 Jun 2009Homicide data cut, chopped, sorted, and mapped in all kinds of interesting ways (especially if you live in NYC). Supposedly will be updated regularly. Related article. Hat-tip to Information aesthetics for the find.
