Happy b-day to #OpenStreetMap, the free, volunteer-created map of the world!
We've worked w/ #OSM data since the very beginning, and a few years ago we wrote a 2-part history of Stamen's long relationship with OSM: https://t.co/geQ1XOkZ0r

Sad news. It has come to our attention that the @NOAA weather station moored at 0º, 0º (nicknamed @NullIslandBuoy) no longer exists! Check out the update at the end of @mapppingmashups's @nullisland blog post for more details of the buoy's untimely demise. https://t.co/CxzHSMNmSQ
