ClusterMaps sent me a note stating that I have been using their free service for exactly one year now. This is some of the information. The larger the red dot, the more people from that area that have viewed our web site.
Interesting, but not necessarily important.

I must be getting senile in my young age.
What I forgot to mention is that once a year they wipe the map, removing all the red dots. Which means that in a few days the map will be clean and empty like a noob. They're concern is that eventually the world will become a huge red blob and well, I guess we need to toss the bloody thing in the trash like a used ...
... must be our time of the year. PMS ... oh the cramps.
Friends are good to keep track of. But where are the people that hate us?! That's what we really need to follow.
"Keep your friends close... keep your enemies closer."
That's why I talk to Simon and Garble on a regular basis! LOL
Data on site visits need to be taken with a grain of salt.
I noticed that there's large red dots in northeast Texas and southern Michigan... that's probably from Simon and me visiting the server several times. But our internet connections aren't on a static IP, so every time we show up, it's a slightly different IP but the tracker assumes it's a different person.
So, I wouldn't use this as an indicator of number of BL visitors, per se, but rather the geographic distribution of nerds worldwide!
Yes, the map tracking system is sort of misleading. It tracks how many times the page is called without any concern for the possibilities of it being opened by the same person, nor concern about any time frame.
Any single person that opens and closes the page with the map (Qwildurn's DND Server) 100 times in the same day will be recorded as 100 separate users. Therefore, 99 extra and misleading counts.
If I had the map on multiple pages, each page being opened would add to this misleading count.
It's a free service and it is kind of neat. I suppose we should ignore the size of the red dots and just be happy the we have read dots.
