Glad you like it. Here is another one to visit: http://www.MassStats.com,
where you can view a wide variety of data about Massachusetts at the city
and town level.
It is done by chaining together seven web mapping applications, using a
Mapplication for assembling a library of maps. Each web mapping application
has its own set of thematic maps (on housing, education, etc.); web apps
are reached by clicking the appropriate button along the top. The cool
thing is that changing to another set of maps or choosing a particular map
from a library does not change the map center or scale, so you can examine
different data for neighboring towns very quickly.
