Kinda cool, how do I add myself? Ive wondered if there were any members near by.

j..

Added on edit: nevermind I see the "add your location" button.

I thought "member map" was going to be some cool feature that groups members together by the sub-forums they post in, or how often they post together in the same topic.

This is ok though.

I thought that, too. Anyway, this is pretty neat.

I like it! I added myself.

Needs to be promoted more.

David, Good Idea!

I took the liberty of looking up the coordinates of 400 members who provided their city in their profile and adding them to the map, so maybe you won't be so lonely now :-)

Edit: I just added 83 international users too.

I noticed you seem to have added at least one banned member. Maybe it would better not to keep banned accounts on the map. ^^;

I noticed that members in exactly the same city cannot be found, besides the first alphabetically (unless Google has this option and I'm not aware of it). For example, I couldn't see myself in Columbus, OH.

If there's no workaround, I added myself by my zip code instead, and it worked. Unless someone else adds it, too, which would be really surprising!

You can enter latitude & longitude also, though it wants to find a nearby "known" location.

Oops. Thanks.
