The world as a blog

When you have a few minutes -- or a few hours - be sure to stop by the Geoblog, a very interesting use of the Weblogs.com recently updated list.

This site features a map of the world, and as posts are made to blogs around the world, Geoblog grabs the information from Weblogs.com, snatches up a short excerpt from the newest entry and shows that to you, along with where the post is being made. It's not quite in real time - the author estimates, though, that the posting to the Geoblog is made within 1 to 3 minutes of the blog being updated.

It's quite fascinating, really.

Wow, this is pretty cool. I wonder if it's possible to make this into a screen saver. That would be the envy of all of my coworkers. . .
