Facebook, MySpace, Bebo, Hi-5... all social networking sites. Meaning that friends from school, family members, long-lost high school sweethearts of yesteryear, and weird people, can get in touch with again and see what you're up to. But it's not all stalker based nonsense, even in online gaming communities, people can develop circles of friends that are spread all over the world. And Buddymapping helps you keep tabs on your virtual contacts.
Using Google maps, this site helps you to create your own personalised maps and then invite friends and contacts to pin themselves to their location, adding a picture, e-mail or web address and even a link to their MySpace or Facebook pages.
I'm thinking of setting one up for my Facebook page, and for here (most likely to be added to the About Me section). Apparently, people only need to click the orange button to add themselves to the map - they don't need to register.
Let me know what you think.
