A lovely visual representation of all Guardian journalists who use Twitter has been created by Inside Guardian.co.uk blogger Paul Carvill:
[Journalism.co.uk is creating its own list of digital editors (journalists working primarily as online/multimedia web editors) - though perhaps not so stylishly as Paul's efffort - so let us know if you're one.]

The images below, which are courtesy of Guardian Inside blogger Paul Carvill, show the inside of the new premises – for more, see Paul’s Flickr stream.
(Hopefully we’ll get invited for a nose around ourselves in not too long…)
The Guardian has published its first article including geolocation data and is using geographic tagging to track reporters covering the US presidential race. Every time a reporter posts a blog their location will be highlighted on a Google map.
Geotagged content has been around for a while now, but is starting to take effect in the UK media: last week, the Liverpool Echo, published a hyperlocal news map.
On Guardian.co.uk’s Inside Blog, Paul Carvill describes the geolocating process: reporters add their latitude and longitude to their article or blog post, and their location will appear in the RSS feed, which in turn can be fed into a Google map using a java script.
Online users can type in their postcode to find out what is being reported in their area, or alternatively click on an area of the map to source information from another location.
