IMHO, it would be very interesting to have it updated on realtime (which I think is not possible), to see at every very moment, where are the ppl located which are "now" online.

In the way it is now, it has (IMHO again) only statistical value

Never mind, Avian...

A few things on that map - it's just taking the hits on the webpage over the past week, and putting them on a map. Right now, it's updated weekly, but soon, it will be updated daily.

I also think it would be cool to see a map (albeit it will be much fewer dots, but in the same places) of users who are now online on a map. If you see a module like that for Joomla, let me know.

I think it's pretty neat - it's interesting to see new dots appear in placed like India and north Africa!

The motherload of OSS mapping is at:
http://www.maptools.org/
But those would be roll yer own; logsIP, IPgeolocate,locationmap API,APIJoomla... yuck.
This already handles the API/Joomla stuff, but is static from users gallery info:
http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/...y2:Modules:Map
This might be a lot closer:
http://forge.joomla.org/sf/projects/google_maps
Which leads to:

Just found this:
http://www.freelance-park.com/joomla...geo_community/
Looks pretty good at first glance.


HTH, and sorry for the rambling research
