I was confused for a bit also until I figured out it automatically captures your location. When you first visit, it will show the location (text banner) for ten minutes and after that just shows the red marker.

You got it. It just picks up on your address and coverts it to a location. I thought it was kind of cool, so figured I'd try putting it on the site. Pretty easy actually.

The globe thinks I live 2 towns over, 20 miles away, in a different zip code.

Ok, who is the dude or dudess that parked the teener in the Suez Canal?

I'm guilty of the one in Qatar and the one randomly in the Atlantic west of Africa, but not the Suez.

It's using locations based on IP addresses on your ISP, they're only going to be 'ballpark' locations...

Still cool though!
