Not sure if this has been posted to the forums or not recently, but frapper.com has a Mapped Group set up for SL residents! Very cool!

Check it out here, and add yourself:

I'll tap on that when I get around to it.

Doh. I was expecting a Grid Map API hack.... Mark your Locations.... Silly me.

Because of the old map projection (Mercator? I forget), Antarctica takes up the most space on the map but has the fewest SL players. Someone ought to try to rectify the imbalance. (I heard there's a lot of plots in Antarctica selling for less than L$1/M²...)

What someone needs to do - someone with mapping experience (I'm looking straight at ya, Ice Brodie!) - i develop a link between the two.

SL ---> llEmail() ---> server ---> HTTP GET maybe? It might be that easy.
