Locations...

Anyone out there have this happen? Yesterday, I had a huge amount of hits on my maploco. And a lot of them were foreign locations all happening around the very same time. What's up with that? Most of the locations I do see make sense. And even some foreign ones make sense (and I love to see the little hearts out there knowing someone far away is doing ok). But then why a bunch from some obscure place and a lot at the same time? (spooky!)

  1. That happened to me once and I was feeling so loved for a brief moment until my friend explained to be how it worked. If I remember correctly it is one computer with some kind of router that bounced the signals off of something. Does that help? hehe! If you will look closely at the times of those hits they are with in seconds or minutes of each other that is how you know it is one computer. Hope I didn't burst your bubble like mine was. It does look good on there though, doesn't it?

  2. so were the little hearts from my part of the universe? Just wondering 'cause I've been mostly offline for the past 5 weeks but I did visit your site Jul 16...and we have a funny internet hookup in this apt that I've never seen before; it wouldn't surprise me if it did funny things to the map thing.

  3. Thanks for the explanation, Darcie. I've never had this happen, but now I'll know what it is. ;)
