FEATURES:
caching of user locations
This is a crucial feature for all sites having more than 50 users. In the free version, user addresses are taken from the Google's reverse geocoding webservice. This means each time any address is displayed, it's pulled from the webservice. When caching is enabled, user addresses are written to database each time user changes his location. This significantly lowers page loading time for user listings, and improves service's up time (no more 'Show on map' texts instead user addresses).
zoomable map displaying all members (in development)
this map shows most popular users on the map, and on the list below the map. By default, it shows 10 most popular users in a location's scope. This means that if you zoom in, eventually you will be able to see also those users that are less popular. The number of users being shown can be changed. If you're logged in, you can view the map in action here. (it's not accessible for not logged in users)
IP geocoding
This is a powerfull module, allowing you to get location based by the IP address. When a select location window is opened, the map is centered on the current user IP address's location.
This module can be usefull to you in many ways. You can easily create a map showing all connections to your site, or a given group. You can also provide your users with some local informations, or detect their default language by their location. It's also possible to provide content that is accessible only to people from a given town, or region.
