Hey Josh,

It wasn't the plan initially - what I want it for is to show on the homepage where all the lookups are for. Rather than showing a number of lookups executed, show a heatmap.

What were you wanting precisely? The analytics statistics that comes with registered users already has a basic heatmap per country to show where visitors are from. I could swap that out for a more accurate heatmap if I get this sorted out, but it would be for the signup service (ie statistics) - still free though.

Thanks for the support

I love this geo stuff, have done since I launched one of the first aff-geo ads for the masses (one of my very first posts on gfy).

What has kept me going with it is the feedback I've had from people - some people are using it for stuff I would never have thought of - mailing lists where the receipient receives ads from eg amazon and better ebay based on their locality, whale watching where they tie in some university api on tracking whales, to inform people when is the best time to go whale watching in their area - imagination is the key.
