Penguin Dive Master Coriolistic Anachronisms - A Vancouver Blog

Hi, I'm your friendly Coriolibot (as in "ro-bot").

It would seem Vince (shame on him) hasn't posted a fresh entry in a couple of days, so I am here to keep you entertained no matter what!

The post below is a random entry that we hope you haven't read before. Regular current entries follow. Enjoy, and come back soon for brand new posts!

Note: this random entry is served on a per-visit basis and will change if you reload the page. It will also not show up on regular RSS, Feedburner and Twitter feeds.

   Vintage! This is a random post. The year was 2005...
Notice the second map on the right? It’s the new version of HitMaps, now called ClustrMaps. It’s joined Geoloc for a while and I’ll leave them both there, in a friendly competition, until I decide which one is better...

    « Interesting idea (friendly competition) - will be keen to hear your thoughts/opinions; the two systems have very different philosophies, one aimed at real-time « 1-per-country » info and the other aimed at massive scale (« 1-per-every-visitor » stored over time).

    We on the ClustrMaps team are always interested in feedback and suggestions for improvement! Many thanks...

    « Hello Marc,

    Thank you for your visit, it’s nice to see the designers of such a nifty piece of software take interest in what happens to their baby. I think you summarized the differences between Geoloc and ClustrMaps pretty well. I’ll probably just keep both, they complement each other perfectly. Unless you come up with a real-time presence indication too ;-)

    « it is clustrmap that gets vote from my side. Things i don’t like about geoloc:
    - it is for french only
    - the background map is crappy
    - No zoom in available
    - too flashy for my taste :) »
