ClustrMaps: Site Traffic with a Geo-Twist

by Jeff Hester · Sep 29, 2005

Most blogs and websites employ some method to track how many visitors they get. Usually those stats include information like where they came from (the referring link), if they used search terms via Google or another search engine, and their approximate geographic location. I recently ran across a new service being called ClustrMaps that adds […]

Wikipedia’s Evil Twin

by Jeff Hester · Sep 20, 2005

Wikipedia is a tremendous resource and a pretty cool way for people to collaborate on documentation. In just a couple years, it’s grown to become one of the largest encyclopedias available, with over 30 million entries and arguable the most up-to-date information of any encyclopedic resource. One of the attractions of Wikipedia is that it’s […]

Live from New Orleans

by Jeff Hester · Sep 7, 2005

My heart goes out to the people of New Orleans and the other areas ravaged by hurricane Katrina. Today I learned about a blog being maintained by someone currently living in a high-rise in downtown New Orleans. They work downtown at a data-center, and have power generators, water, and obviously an internet connection. It’s a […]

Geotags, FlickrFly and Google Earth

by Jeff Hester · Sep 6, 2005

Technology really is pretty cool. I’ve extolled the virtues of Flickr and Google Earth before, but now a guy by the name of Rob Roy has linked the two together with FlickrFly. FlickrFly adds a nifty little “Fly to this location” link to your properly geotagged photo. Clicking the link (assuming you’ve installed Google Earth), […]
