The CommonCensus Map Project is redrawing the map of the United States based on your voting, to reveal the boundaries people themselves feel, as opposed to the state and county boundaries drawn by politicians...
...This information will finally settle the question over where disputed cultural boundaries lie (like between New York City and Upstate New York), contribute to the national debate over Congressional redistricting and gerrymandering, and educate people everywhere as to the true layout of the American people that they've never seen on any map before.

Basically, you put in your address (no names or anything) and answer a series of questions about what areas you consider yourself "drawn to" in your region.
This looks like an interesting idea, especially looking at their present
maps after a few thousand entries.
Anyone have any ideas how this kind of information can be used, other then to see exactly where people look to when it comes to cities/regions?
