Custom Visitor Map August 31, 2006
Posted by vinnyt in : General , trackbackSo I’ve created what I think is a pretty cool use of the google maps. You can click here to see it. What it does is record each visit to my site then at random intervals I lookup on www.hostip.info the latitude and longitude associated with that IP address. I’m in process of finding a different source of data seeing at this one is only slightly accurate approximately 50% of the time by their own estimates. When the page loads I grab a list of Latitudes and Longitudes and then look up the IP addresses that are associated with said latitude and longitude and I then put that in a list with the number of visits and the last visit recorded for that IP address. I then build the list and boom show it when you pull up the page.
