So I found a new visitor map widget for my site. This one uses the Google Maps for viewing and exploring. It shows where it thinks you are and if you click it, it shows all the recent visitors. I always like to know where people come from (and maps, I like maps). How close does it show you to where you think you are?!?
It seems like it just counts each visitor (or IP?) once, so that’s good, it takes about a half day to update the chart but I think your location is always correct.
The image in this post is “static”. To see the “live” image look in the footer of any page.
I got this from here. It’s set up as a myspace tool but it looks like it’ll work fine if you just copy the image and the link.
I originally didn’t think this was working but I guess it just took a few hours to kick in (I had actually removed the post and had to repost it).
Fascinating; what a great idea. I think I’ll look at incorporating it into my blog at some point too.
