Animated USA Unelmpoyment Map 2007-2009 - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Greetings:

Here is a rather shocking reality map. If you want to watch the creeping unemployment in the USA over the past 2-1/2 years, go to the following URL and click on the PLAY button. Even more disturbing is that this map only represents the "official" unemployment, not the real numbers that count all the people who want full employment and cannot get it (closer to 20%). So, who is buying all that stock that is pushing the DOW higher every day?

*Click here for the animated map*

Does anyone know of similar maps for other countries?

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
