This video, created by Foursquare, is kind of fascinating and maps check-ins in New York vs. Tokyo over the course of 4 days.
The different colored dots, representing different categories of check-ins, light up and intensify during different points of the day, tracking people's daily routines and highlighting more popular areas for certain categories - more notable in New York, with areas like the LES lighting up from 12 to 2 am (with the check-ins then staggering home around 3 or 4 am and not lighting up until noon the next day).
Nerdiliciously interesting and almost a social media study in sociology.
