  1. I can see you have paid a lot of effort on this map by picking out all the countries in which IKEA has opened store (I guess). However, I think it is kind of confused because at first I thought the blue lines represented some kind of processes of production. I spent some time to click on each line and read the description before I understand the whole map. So I think it would be better if you put a sign on the countries instead of drawing a line. Also, I think you need an (interesting) title of the map.

  2. Good job with the use of different icons and different colored lines, but as Weng said, I can't exactly tell what lines are supposed to represent production or distribution, so try to edit your descriptions. - Santosh Samuel

  3. I really liked your use of different Icons, as it helped me see the different objectives you were trying to show the audience. Your map could use a more detailed name, but it does meet the requirements of the assignment. I can tell it was really hard to show all the expansion in the small area of Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and such, so I think you did a good job capturing it and then utilizing the whole globe to show the rest of the World IKEA expanded too.
