I admire the work that went into the Imus map, but looking at the example images in the article, I actually think I prefer the NatGeo map.<p>My eyeballs seem to have an easier time resolving the place names, and figuring out what they refer to.  I think its because NatGeo let the baselines for the text bend, while Imus insists they&#x27;re all flat, making them looked &quot;stacked&quot;<p>(I actually compared the maps and decided which one looked better before reading the caption saying which was which, and was surprised the one I prefered was the one NatGeo one.)
