Azimuthal Equidistant Projection shows the equal distances, probably my favorite
Mercator Projection is good too
Thanks!
Is that Azimuthal projection centred on London though? It looks like it's centred in Africa but maybe that's just because the top-left is cropped off because it's all ocean?

Nice. That shows a bit clearer how geography, not just distance, affects latency.
