A Map Mashup of A Few Friends’ Blogs

I’ve been working on something like this for a little while. Basically it puts a dot on a map that links to most of the blogs in our list of links. Don’t be concerned if your blog is on it, because I didn’t use your address to put you on the map. In fact, in some cases I probably didn’t even get the city right. However, it shows an interesting display of how the various blog that Kristine and I read are from all over the place.

If you click on one of the red icons, then the blogger and a link to their blog will appear.

Oh yeah, and if you like this idea, then I hope to actually create a website that will let anyone do this type of thing. In fact, I’m competing in a competition that would help me create this website. Some of you have voted before for some of my other ideas, but here’s the link to vote for Blog Mashing.

Let me know what you think and if you’d use something like this on your blog if it were available.

    Yay! There I am in Houston. I still haven’t met up with Mouton yet… looking at that map reminded me that I’ve been here 3 months and still haven’t seen her… I should plan something with her before the baby comes and life really gets busy! :)
