Anthropology Graduate Programs Around the World

As an experiment, I expanded a citation analysis tool I wrote for google apps and mashed it up with Google Maps API to display the location of anthropology graduate programs around the world.  The map allows you to look at the faculty present and also view the distribution of citations for individuals. It was more of a programming experiment than anything. It is a work in progress -- so may be broken -- but try it out if you get a chance:

BTW: Although it uses standard javascript (the Google Maps API), this does not appear to work in firefox.  Try Safari, IE, Google Chrome...
