IMHO this is delightful :) I like the use of real excerpts, with clickthrough, etc. A couple of thoughts for feedback: * It's not 100% obvious if each word in the key should be associated with the image below it or above it. I'd suggest either put actual boxes around, to ensure the visual grouping (or less intrusively just change the spacing a bit, minimal space between word+image and a bit more space between items), or make them side-by-side rather than above-and-below. * For the "way" excerpts, would it be possible to avoid selecting regions that have other ways in? For example the river in the highway=secondary is potentially confusing.
