Mapping Census Data

Datashine: Census is a site from UCLs Big Open Data: Mining and Synthesis project which provides an easy interface to map UK population data.
Datashine let's you answer questions like:
Where do all the cyclists live
Where in Wales has the greatest density of Hairdressers?
Where all the ladies at in Leeds?
Or if you're the Guardian:
Where do all the Atheists live?
You might know Oliver O'Brien from the excellent Suprageography blog

Wow. This is just a superb project. Just superb.
Of course I just used the tool to check that the area I'm moving to next week has lower ethic diversity, lower academic achievement, lower economic indicators and higher religious belief than the area I currently live in. Which... isn't ideal. But I love the project nether-the-less!
