black lines means mega amount of nodes in one spot (probably supernodes/exchanges)
orange lines a bit less
green lines less then orange
blue lines even less..
the height of the lines gives it away.
the blackline in the centre of USA.. the location of the line is in the Kansas area near the Missouri boarder which many Dox'ers know as the locations of inaba data centre/pool and BFL
it has brought up many theories.
BFL's mining hotspot(although when clicking the mining option it reduces to a orange line)..
Inaba's old job the data centre which many users host their bitcoin projects
Inaba's old job the data centre which hosts his mining pool lots of people connect to.
or a tor exit node many users get routed to.
the one in UK. thats blockchain.info or intersango, exit nodes again more theories
the one in Ukraine, most probably BTC-E.com exchange or a few other theories
it doesnt give you all the answers to who or why there's alot of action there. but atleast the info is updated regularly. and as a brit its nice to see 2 big black lines in england. one near london and one in north england.
i guess the UK is starting to wake up to bitcoin and taking over like a storm to have high frequency of nodes in a small area.

dunno, i doubt all this black/white is fine.
No, that's exactly how it's supposed to be.
At least it has always been this way for me.

It works here.
Is this globe project dead? I can't seem to load it! I really loved it!
any similar projects, maps or something ?

@Stefan Thomas: You rock! That's just amazing. 
Can I expect to see the source behind this posted anytime soon?
What's that huge spike in the middle of the US? A secret bitcoiner enclave in the Kansas City?
Could it be all the nodes on sprint wireless connections? I have seen my sprint card shows me as Kansas City no matter where I am.
Is this map actually realtime ?, or does it get updated on a regular basis ?
Load this in google earth, make sure you aren't mining, it will crash your sys driver.

Does anyone have the skill/expertise to set up a time series of this data and visualization? How awesome would it be to record this map every 12 hours over the course of 3-6 months? Would be great footage.
And if the historical data is stored somewhere, then a video can be created of the entire history of Bitcoin network, right?
Anyone know how to make this happen?

excellent work!
Isn't it for IPs that are in a range that doesn't has a location specified to anything more precise than country?
Yep, that's what I assumed. It also explains the spikes in the middle of nowhere in Russia, in the Amazon in Brazil, in the frozen wasteland of Canada, etc.I'm in Canada and I can see my dot!!! Finally I'm famous! Yay!
and no...I'm not the big one... sigh...
