Experimental Features
Map
Warning: The map feature may hang your browser.
This is an experimental feature that shows where each hub is on a geographic map if they provided that information in their profile. Of course most users do not reveal this information and some lie about their location but it can still be a lot of fun. You get to see that the G2 network has users all over the world and they're all interconnected.
This mapping feature is experimental because it requires a fast computer and/or the right browser in order to work smoothly. So give it a try but understand that it may not work well for everyone. In my experience Chrome did really well while Firefox and IE did poorly so if you already have Chrome installed you might give this feature a try in that browser even if you don't use it for anything else.
Green lines are used to show hubs that are connected together. Clicking on a marker will reveal additional information about that hub:
- username if provided
- name and version of the software they are using
- number of hubs and leaves they are connected to
- the actual country they are in based on their IP address and MaxMind's GeoIP
- the exact coordinates they provided
