I think there is a bug. to see it you let the animation run long enough and get over all the first 174 countries.
So after Zimbawe you get

      Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined

In fact, this is due to the fact that =n=, the number of countries to iterate through is initialized before the array is filtered. =n= should be set after the filter like:

  // ...

  countries = countries.filter(function(d) {
    return names.some(function(n) {
      if (d.id == n.id) return d.name = n.name;
    });
  }).sort(function(a, b) {
    return a.name.localeCompare(b.name);
  });
  n = countries.length;
  // ...

In my own fork I made the tour random as well:

  // ...
  (function transition() {
    d3.transition()
        .duration(1250)
        .each("start", function() { // listen for the transition's start event
            title.text(countries[i = Math.floor(n * Math.random())].name);
        })
   //...

Where can I find the tsv and json files?

Go poking in https://gist.github.com/mbostock/4090846 and you'll find the data :)

Getting this error when trying to locate Singapore:
(index):75 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined(…)

Is it not in world-110m.json?

I've slightly tweaked this project to add search: https://run.plnkr.co/6uQO5uJyDW2INqDS/

There is another small mistake:
land = topojson.feature(world, world.objects.land)
should be:
land = topojson.feature(world, world.objects.land).features
This does not show up because all countries compose land, but when you filter countries, e.g. to highlight only the countries of the Pacific Rim, it becomes a problem that's hard to find...
