This is a map where you add your coordinates and your preffered OS and you become a name on a map together with some statistics.
Operating System User Worldmap Survey
Hopefully, we'll see different versions soon, including listing of just a country, listing of one single operating system, and instead of names, just small dots. Similar to the picture taken of the world at night from satellites. Each user becomes a dot, ten users at the same place becomes a larger dot, etc. I've notified the site owner of these little enhancements.

Posted by alan buxey on 26-Jan-2003 13:34 GMT | just dots would be nice..different colours for different OS's..and
different sizes for numbers of users.... when the country zoom in
is done it'd be nice to see places here in UK. anyway, just added
myself...hopefully i've got the right coordinates ;-)
PS If someones dot IS iun the sea...it might not be a mistake!! they
may be living on an offshore rig :-)
