(P.S.: I've been used Google Analytics for my Geek Place - for more than two years, it is no double extremely powerful, and it already contains a feature 'Map Overlay', however, due to privacy policy, Google Analytics does NOT display visitor's IP address, see ). So, the process is: Track visitor's IP addresses -> 'Translate' them to Geography location -> Show them on Google Map! Just a few days ago, I casually emitted an idea: summarize those GEO location records and display them on Google Map, hmm, it is feasible:)
Since beforehand I stored visitor's IP Addresses into my own database, I decided to utilize InfoDB API to store visitor's GEO locations.
It provided API which could 'translate' any IP Address into a geography location including City/Region/Country as well as latitude/longitude and time zone information, to invoke its API, a registered API key is required (which is free). Few months ago, I found an interesting website.
