unlikelymoose readers around the world

On Wednesday, I installed the ClustrMaps widget on my blog. Now, everyone can see where in the world all the unlikelymoose blog readers are located. The map is located in the left gray bar. You can also see a large image of the map here.

Clustrmaps only tracks traffic to the page, unlikelymoose.com/blog. I receive hundreds (almost thousands) of hits a day to all my blog posts via links from other sites, but that's not tracked by Clustrmaps. So the Clustrmaps results only show people who have gone directly to unlikelymoose.com/blog.

Thanks to the countries of Brazil, Portugal, Great Britain, Poland, Hungary, and the United States of America for visiting my blog home page on the first day I had Clustrmaps installed!

You're very welcome! Keep up the good work!

The list of nations has grown on day 2. I'd also like to welcome New Zealand, The Philippines, Norway, Canada, Switzerland, Germany, and Malaysia.

I'm bummed that the Clustrmaps map isn't very detailed. Often it's hard to tell which country is which.

I figured out a way to determine which country is which on Clustrmaps. It requires Photoshop and a minute or two of work.

fabiovisentin.com has a great hi-res map of thw world. It is 8000x4000 pixels (26.67 x 13.33" at 300 dpi). Download that map here. Open the map in Photoshop. Then download your clustrmap map. Paste it on top of the hi-res map. Scale the clustrmap 995%. Yes, that's almost one thousand percent. Change the opacity so you can match up the position of the clustrmap with the hi-res map. And whamm-o. You can now tell which country your visitors are from!

Day 3 has seen the addition of Mexico, Saudi Arabia, and India.
