Dataset of the Day: The Washington Post's Best Bets
The Washington Post has compiled a list of ‘Best Bets’ under their ‘going out guide,’ which turns out to be extremely helpful in a city that is booming with activities and tasty foods & drinks. To better visualize some of the hot spots that they suggest, I’ve created three maps using GeoCommons. Map 1 displays food options, Map 2 is dedicated to drinks, and the final map includes events and cultural festivals for the next couple of months. Indecisive about what to eat or what to do this weekend? Perhaps these maps will head you in the right direction. Enjoy!
