London Lights

I’m a bit of a stats and data junkie. There’s nothing I like better than analyzing data over a hot cup of fruit tea. Yes, really. Forget death metal, internet pornography, and class A drugs… I like data analysis and I’m proud to admit it. With welovelocal, I have such a wealth of statistics that if they were real, I would rub them against my naked body… possibly. So, with all this data, what else can I do, but analyze it?

This is the first in an indefinite series that I will be posting over the days, and months, and maybe years. The first, tentatively titled ‘London Lights’, is an image of nearly all the businesses on welovelocal and where they are positioned on a map. Now, it would be no fun to have an actual map on the image, it’s much more amusing to work out where areas and roads are based on the lights on the image. See if you can guess where Regents Park, Upper Street, the Thames and Kentish Town Road are?
