        This is a great demonstration of networks during the blackout of
this past friday.  For all you machine learning enthusiasts: imagine using
this network as a hidden markov model!

Off slashdot:

An anonymous reader writes "Renesys put together a special report on the
effects of the recent blackout on routing and network reachability on the
Internet. It includes a cool animation of networks dropping off the
internet (presumably as a result of the power outage). It is interesting
to see how localized some of the outage was--networks in New York state
right up to the Vermont border go dark while everything on the other side
of the border is quiet. New York City obviously gets clobbered."
