StackGeography, a Stack Exchange question mapping site

##UPDATE: Known 403 issue

The app appears to have maxed out the quota on Google Maps geocoding API. I will have to put a server-side proxy in place to cache these requests (most are not terribly unique).

##About

Ever wanted to see just what kind of locations are posting to the various Stack Exchange sites at any given time? Even if you haven't, you'll find it with StackGeography.

This site started with a desire to get a visual sense of the wide-spread use of the various Stack Exchange sites while simultaneously creating a proof-of-concept mapping demo. This met both of those needs, and provided a great chance to poke around various JavaScript libraries.

###Download

No download necessary, just visit stackgeography.com.
