BLOG: Displaying Visitors log

Remember what is gVisit? I have posted about this visitors’ map generator in August. gVisit allows to generate this kind of maps:

visitors log

I find this service pretty cool because it materializes the different visitors’ locations much more than the logs. For example, on this blog in the last hours, I had the visit of people from (just some exotic – from my point of view – destinations, a *lot* of you are “just” coming from the US, which is not quite exotic, but hey, thanx to have a look here from time to time, you are warmly welcome ;-):

exotic countries

I searched a way to integrate a kind of “uptodated-short-list” of my last 10 visitors directly in my blog. gVisit gives a tip how to bring dynamically an RSS feed within a page, with the help of PHP and Javascript. This service called Feed2JS is free, you can also installed the code directly to your website, if you’d like to (GNU license). You can now have a look on the right-side of the blog, you could find the discussed short-list (RSS reader, come and have a look :-).

PS: the visitors log is updated every few hours, so do not refresh each minute, not really efficient/useful ;-)
