Where in the world are Rockbox users

[rasher]

I've sometimes wondered once in a while how Rockbox users are spread out geographically, so I have created a little thing using Google maps,
which could end up being a nice map of Rockbox users.

So head on to http://rasher.dk/rockbox/people/ and add yourself if you
want to be on this map. It's fast and easy.

I neither want nor need your street address, real name, email or
anything personal like that (although you can enter your real name and
email if you like). Be as precise as you feel comfortable with.

I am going to assume you actually meant to have this read, so I moved it to the new forums.

[rasher]

Oh yes indeed. Apparently I wasn't quite paying attention when I posted it.

Thank you.

Great idea rasher! Now we can have a crude estimation on heavy rockbox users.

[Llorean]

Apparently the Central timezone in the US has a strong anti-Rockbox sentiment...

Apparent not much Asian users as well =(

Another idea might be to use:

Yep, Asia is somewhat dead. Strange, all the Otakus should be informed about Rockbox opportunity for their DAPs, especially iPods. 

Re: Central (American) Timezone - I guess it's less populated and additionally less keen of technology (technology savvy, you'd say ).

Unfortunately in my region (Central-Eastern Europe) DAPs supported by Rockbox ar not too popular. Despite economic reasons, guys like Creative have a lion's share of the market here, I guess.

Anyway, I'm waiting to get registered as a first user from Poland (there is also at least one Polish dev, Tomasz).

Wow, giant growth in the number users registered. The map is getting quite full, what with all this sticky publicity.

if you want a more detailed and but personal way to find where users are coming from, try http://www.google.com/analytics/

I'm aware of this problem, but fixing it isn't easy (especially considering I'm an absolute hack when it comes to javascript). If anyone's interested in fixing this (by dynamically adding and removing markers close to eachother based on zoom-level), speak up and I'll be glad to let you.
