Regrettably, no tidbits to hand out just yet. As time goes on, then perhaps–so stay tuned. Toby:

I suspected that, for many maps, applications like Illustrator are widely used; I'm doing a personal creative project that involves redesigning a transit system map and find that Illustrator accomplishes this task very nicely indeed. Would you be willing to share what kinds of maps you do and some idea (you don't have to give away the store) how you do them? Contact me privately if you'd like to. I'd love to show such a thing off, because the production of maps is something I want to explore here as well. That’s just the sort of thing I want to find out about!

I've been using Illustrator since Illustrator "'88" as a cartographer to make not just "simple" maps, but every map. How else do you think maps are made? Sure ArcView and other apps exist for GIS/quantitative mapping, but any map I've ever "drawn" (and anyone in the industry) uses Illustrator (or historically Freehand to a lesser extent).
