Frapper map of MacRumors members

[Don't panic]

I tried- it didn't work for me. I can't even see the map.

me neither, unless it's a picture of the arctic in winter

Those having trouble might want to read the Google Local help page. The "accessing local" section seems to say that clearing cache can help.

Sweet idea, shame the UK has already been swarmed.

113 members... let's get more members on the map.

 

[colocolo]

Wow, I feel so lonely down there!

 

[wesco]

I love how I am the only one from los angeles.

 

[cslewis]

Only 4 pennsylvanians? C'mon... there have to be more than that!

 

[w_parietti22]

Whoa! Dr. Dastardly lives like 15 minutes awy from me!

Do you go the UW Village Apple store???

 

[joepunk]

I was finally able to see the map. Had to use a Windows computer in the computer labs at Uni. Will try clearing the cache in Safari.

Edit: nope, nothing. At least Firefox works. Also, the map has me in the water.

 

[mikemodena]

Wow.. I added myself then zoomed all the way in and it put my little dot right down the street from my house... thats's nuts.

 

[crenz]

Wow, thanks to all the people who added themselves!

 

[iAlan]

Cool...

I am the first Japan 'frapper'...woo hoo...

Great how you can zoom in and get conciderable detail - the Japan map is in Japanese and shows the major train and shinkansen (bullet train) lines, the toll booths on the highways and I also found a couple of the golf corses i have played at!

I am actually abouy 15-20 km west of Tokyo so have added me on the map below. For Japan there was no exact match so I said 'Tokyo' and not my 'suburb' which is Shinjuku.

If anyone is ever in the neighbourhood please stop by - I always have beer in the fridge and it only takes a few minutes to fire the BBQ up!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Wow.. I added myself then zoomed all the way in and it put my little dot right down the street from my house... thats's nuts.

Hmm... I zoomed in and it's got me on the other side of the city, about three-and-a-half miles away from where I actually live. Still, not bad!

 

[Zaid]

I'm on there too now

 

[mad jew]

Very cool stuff. It's really good to see where everyone's from.

 

[mcadam]

Just checked out how this has developed. I noticed there's even someone from Africa - Lagos, Nigeria to be precise. And guess what - he needs help to transfer millions of $ out of the country lol... how the heck did he get there...?

[Mr. Anderson]

This is a classic

I don't think there is an N-Gomu at MacRumors.....

[iDM]

Definitely cool map, interested if the Google Conspiracy Theorists out there put there locations!!

(I know you exist!!)

P.S. Anyone heard any news about about when Google Maps will be out for OS X I WANT IT!!

Edit: I got to school in Pittsburgh, but I have always associated home with Delaware!

 

[watcher2001]

Too ultimately cool. I have added myself to the map.

 

[edesignuk]

Finally added, only seemed to work for me in IE under Windows (the adding side of it)

 

[feakbeak]

I'm on now too... very cool.

 

[jayb2000]

no one else from Maine?

I thought there was at least one other poster who has mentioned being from Maine.

Hello?

Nope, there isn't - I searched the memberlist for different variations of the full name, but no cigar. They certainly are getting around to every corner of the net.

Now, if he HAD been a real MR-member, I'd certainly have given him acces to my bank account right on the spot. Who wouldn't help a trustworthy forum-brother in such a delicate situation.

I created a Frapper map for MacRumors members at http://www.risingconcepts.com/frapper/macrumors . Please enter yourself, I want to see where you all are coming from

Delete me please

Seriously, they've added my town now, so I'd like to remove the nearby "wrong" city and put myself in the right place

 

[Chacala_Nayarit]

Frapper tells me where I live is "not a valid city". So, I put my USA address in Tumwater, WA. What does frapper have against Mexico?

Reminds me of Win98, "This program has caused a fatal error, and will now close, please restart your computer..."
