I had seen that Mississippi River map on your blog (I'm a loyal RSS subscriber), but not the Thames map. Looks nice! I'm also enjoying the rest of that Word as Image collection you've got.

I've made a couple of typographic maps as well: 1) World map with city names, the size and color of the city name depend on the population: http://jaukia.kapsi.fi/kuutio/muuta/kaupunkikartta.pdf 2) World map with Googled descriptions (with a "Cityname is * for its" search) for each city: http://www.maplib.net/fullmap.php?id=4242&lat=-53.24549522839596&lng=35.859375&z=8 Nice listing of typographic maps!
