I've added random points to this map that animate through, enter(), update() and exit() data binding from d3js. This shows how to display points on a map directly from an array of latitude/longitude points: [[137, 80], [-80, 80] ...].
This map shows the Natural Earth Admin 0 - Countries shapefile at 50m resolution. Converted to TopoJSON, only 140K gzipped. Each country is identified by its ISO 3166-1 numeric code.

Open up a terminal and type the following command:

I'm also interested in the aussie shares market (www.asx.com.au) so let's see if we can make it read out something useful like the latest breaking news for some shares that we are interested in.
