Santa v Satan v Zombies: who wins in the battle for Google Maps?Simon Rogers Father Christmas faces the Devil and the undead in this academic research fromOxford University at mapping Google mapsYou better watch out, you better
not cry or the zombies might get you. It may be nearly Christmas, but that doesn't
mean Santa is running the web. In parts of the US , he's on the run from both the
undead and the lord of darkness. And yes, this is serious academic research.Mark Graham and the team at the Oxford Internet Institute
(who've mapped
zombies, every geotagged
picture on Flickr and languages
used on Wikipedia) looked at key
words geotagged on Google map as part of their research into the state of
the internet.Graham, who also runs the blogs floatingsheep.org and zerogeography.net worked with Monica
Stephens, Taylor Shelton, and Matt Zook to look at the amount of content indexed
by Google Maps at each location containing the term "Santa" and then
comparing it. To zombies and Satan.
