Nifty meme.

This one's from [livejournal.com profile] lesliepear, and it's a pretty nifty meme... because it requires virtually no effort for me to see your "answers." :-D


Track Your Visitors on a Map!


Edited to add: This meme keeps changing what is says for the link now. How... strange.

It's wrong! I'm not from Uniontown, OH.

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, but at least the Ohio part is right... ;-)

[identity profile] posthaste.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
wow, we live a lot closer than i thought!

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Dude, we do! Only 284 miles?!

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Isn't it?

[identity profile] lotsofjoy.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
That is so cool! I just swiped it. Look for it in another LJ near you in a few minutes!

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
OK!

[identity profile] xellegirlx.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I am 4151 miles away omg :O

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I know - so sad! :-( How will we ever meet at this rate?!

[identity profile] kattale.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
*pout* I want it to tell me *who* these people are, who live on your map.

I want to know where all my LJ friends live - it just tells me *someone* lives there..

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, there are a few things I'd change, but it's still pretty neat. I have a Guestmap for years now, but that require people to do a bit more than just refresh their flist. ;-)

[identity profile] kattale.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, the f-list magic is *way* cool. If anything, it lets me know people are reading me! :)

[identity profile] prairie-chica.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
This is freaky. It got my town right, for once. :P

[identity profile] kechara.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
*reaches for your icon*

[identity profile] prairie-chica.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
No way! You can't have it! :P

(Well, okay, maybe you can. ;P)

[identity profile] kechara.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
thank you! credit goes to you, or someone else?

[identity profile] prairie-chica.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Credit goes to [livejournal.com profile] jr_moon. :)

[identity profile] kechara.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
who lives in Boyertown PA???? We live is Royersford, which isn't that far.

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately, it doesn't tell me who each mark is unless that person left me a comment (and only 2/220+ have so far).

[identity profile] flyingwolf.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
is this going by where you're logged in from or what you have on your user info page? It'll be interesting to see if this changes when I go home. :)

[identity profile] chelelev.livejournal.com 2006-05-10 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it is user info. I went in and corrected mine since it had me in Kennewick and not Richland.

[identity profile] flyingwolf.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
Must be because it didn't change when I got home. It still is WRONG. I only work in Washington, DC. Sigh. I fixed.

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
That's surprising because it didn't strike me as an LJ-exclusive kind of meme.

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 01:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I think we did. It's totally changed what it says now!

[identity profile] flyingwolf.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
arrrggh. I know I changed it. But it's back to saying "Washington DC" (ok, that is where i am now, but not where I'm "from" (where I live)

[identity profile] marshmelococoa.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
It's got me wrong too. It says I'm from Moorhead, MN which is close, but not where I am. It is nice though. :D

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Did you try switching it up?

[identity profile] marshmelococoa.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
I did edit it to my correct zip code. It seems accurate now. :D

[identity profile] hetterrific.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
But I don't live in Papillion?

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Did you try editing it?

[identity profile] the-fishery.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
way cool!!

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yes wai! ;-D

[identity profile] gardenmama.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
I want to know who is from Pengilly, MN? I can spit from here and hit Pengilly!

[identity profile] gardenmama.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, duh. It think's I'm in Pengilly. Well, I'm not :P Let's see if I can fix it.

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
LOL. Did it work?

[identity profile] fiendfyre.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
That scared me! But then i remembered that there are websites out there that can tell you what city an IP address is actually located in and it didn't scare me as much :) It's pretty nifty!!

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-11 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
No, you should go back to being scared. Be scared because I'm WATCHING you. Bwahahaha.

8-D

[identity profile] hypn0tiq.livejournal.com 2006-05-12 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
pretty neat!

[identity profile] navygreen.livejournal.com 2006-05-12 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
It was cooler last night. At that time, the black box said something like this:

Hey you!
You're in BELLEVUE, NE!
0.0 miles away from me.
97 dots on my map - 1 msgs


It worked like the IP tracking tools you see all over the place, and it would show up to you with your address and your distance from me. Later on in the evening, I noticed the 'msgs' change to 'comments.' Then I noticed the 'dots' part change to 'cities claimed.' Finally, this morning, it's not showing where you're at when you look at it anymore - it's just saying 'Put yourself on my map.'

But oh well. It was fun while it lasted. :-)
