GeoBlog after several days

I'm finally closing GeoBlog because the Internet Explorer task was using 300 MB of memory (about 100 MB of real memory and 200 MB of swap space), and the system was grinding to a halt. Here's a final snapshot, after approx 72 hours:

It's interesting to compare this picture with the one from Saturday. The number of blue dots in the USA doesn't seem to have changed much, but the density has increased in places like South America, Europe and Australia.
