U.S. Unemployment Map in Slate

Maps in the news always get my attention. This interactive map at Slate, showing employment numbers in the U.S., by county changing since the start of the recession, is quite illuminating. Play the map animation to see the blue dots (job gains) change over time to large red dots (job losses). It's difficult to ignore the economic crisis at hand.
