Alexander Chen’s subway map is clever, beautiful, and insanely well-designed. It’s also probably the least useful subway map ever created. The Google employee created this HTML5-based app using a 1972 subway design template and the Metro Transit Authority’s public API to create a dynamic, self-generating map using real-time train departures.
The lines double as strings, plucked each time they cross. Really terrific–just don’t check the thing out as you’re running out the door for a trip.
