Timmie:  Did you install basemap from source or using the binary installer?

Because it includes a module for reading remote datasets over http.

Basemap includes the httplib2 module 
(http://code.google.com/p/httplib2/), but if you're installing from 
source it will only install it if it thinks you don't already have it.  
The simple workaround is to grab it and install it yourself (it's a 
single file, pure-python module). 

If you've used the binary installer, it should definitely have been 
installed - so if that's the case let me know and I'll investigate further.
