How cool would it be to take a look at a Google map to see if there are any WordPress fans near your location? Thanks to a new site called WPWorldmap.net, now you can. The site is made up of a Google map with a draggable window that contains the options to sign up or to apply filters such as fans, core developers, users/bloggers, etc. The other neat thing about this site is that it shows upcoming WordCamp events across the world. Signing up was a breeze and if you use Twitter, you can use your account to sign up while also following anyone who has registered to the site already.
Of course, WPWorldMap is only as helpful as the amount of people who decide to signup and appropriately apply their approximate location so if interested, sign up and leave your mark. You might be surprised by the number of WordPress fans in your neighborhood!
I was 1 from Russia ) Yeah ))
Thanks for the heads up. Added myself – don’t see anyone else from Kazakhstan just yet.
What’s funny is I wondered who would be the first to sign up from that country. I now have my answer! 🙂
Peter as ZtrixQ in the south part of Sweden.
I signed up sometime last week. Looked pretty nifty to me and I am a fan of WordPress… It is nice to see where everyone hails from. 🙂
So far I’m the only from New Zealand.
I can see at least 5 other people from New Zealand on the map, e.g. http://wpworldmap.net/profile/Wizely/ or http://wpworldmap.net/profile/Hoogy/ 🙂
I’m the only one from Indonesia 😀
