London Underground map based on time instead of distance

Oskar Karlin had a really great idea while attempting to redesign the map of the London Underground as a final project in college. Instead of focusing on distance in the map's redesign, he would focus on what's most important to travellers: time. The map illustrates how long it will take (on average) to get from point A to point B. The result is an excellent example of a little user-centered thought can send you in a completely new direction than where you started, and produce something that transcends the norm to become more personal, smart, and useful.
This map is focused entirely on the people using it. And that, of course, is exactly where a map should be focused.
