Johannes Lietz has written an awesome plugin for WordPress that tracks the approximate location of visitors to this site, and displays it on a Google Map right here on the site!
I've had this blog for just a month or so, and I find it fascinating that of the few hundred visitors I've had so far, quite a few are from other countries. My tracking metrics let me see them on a world map, but Johannes' plugin lets you see them, too.

A total of eight children under the age of twelve killed in the 9-11 terrorist attacks. Why is it that we never see their faces, but keep seeing the faked photos of civilian casualties in Iraq?
Scroll past the entertainment and see their names at AYC.
