There's actually a guest map thread in here:

But it died out pretty quickly, but it should be possible to make it sticky..

I think it adds a certain level of reality that makes us seem more real than just words on a screen.

You're on the map ItalianGuy..

It's even cooler if you have Google earth installed on your computer..
You can click on the pins to go directly to the city/country...

But it's not 100% accurate, since it traces the country/city by your IP's..

Yeah it will take me to Rome even though I'm not there, but still cool

P.S. We had a visit from Damascus, Syria? And also from Peru, Hawaii... wow.

my map is quite unreliable, and there are other more formal looking ones i've sen so it might be good to start a new one and sticky it

The frappr one I linked at the beginning of this thread is very good and it has a link for admins to put a hot button on this site people can click and go right there. I have it on my site and it works great. If you want a link Redleg I can PM you.
