The World Like You've Never Seen It Before: Worldmapper
A colleague just sent me a link to this cool website that has a slew of world maps with countries drawn in proportion to various categories. A few of these are biological and pretty cool. The one shown here is a map of species at risk.
If you're into unusual visualizations, you might also like the Flowing Data and Information Aesthetics blogs. I look at them periodically to get ideas for figures for papers or talks.
Dechronization is authored by evolutionary biologists interested in the development and application of methods for estimating phylogeny and making phylogeny-based inferences. The goal of the blog is to provide a forum for discussion of the latest research and methods, while also providing anecdotes, tidbits of natural history, and other related information.

Oh, I've seen it before.
Weird, someone left that exact same comment before.
Well, *I'd* never seen that site before and I thought it was pretty darn cool.
