We previously featured the excellent 10x10 project that tracks the news visually through photographs posted by news agencies. Now comes Buzztracker, a site that tracks news geographically, and shows “hotspots” around the world of major stories, and how different locations connect to each other. Also available as a Mac OSX widget.

Annoyingly enough, I proposed an idea to a client very similar to this months ago, but they failed to see the value. Pffft.
