Get Real: HitMaps comes out of the closet

Get Real: HitMaps comes out of the closet points out the HitMaps project, which collects all the IP addresses from your web site visitors, converts them to geographic locations, and plots them on an image of a world map. Any website can post it, as I have on the right column. Cool stuff!

And not all that technically challenging with the right tools. Using the same principles, you can apply this to call center stats, customer records, or anything else under the sun.
