The visitors details are only in 'real time' and not accumulated. Kinda sucks when you only have 2-3 dots flashing, and you cant tell who visited you when you were sleeping Doesn’t work for me.

You should never underestimate the motivational power of seeing your visitors expressed in little dots! My girlfriend (Molly @ dancingmoogle.wordpress.com) was feeling really down about her blog and was actually about to quit because she thought she wasn't really getting enough readers (maybe 5-15 per day at the time). Once she added a ClustrMap, she got really excited about blogging again and after a month with ClustrMaps she's been getting more and more traffic and is pretty happy about it. :) MapLoco is good because it tells you where people are on top of having the little map, although it is subject to sometimes saying that you're getting visitors from Tyler, Texas.

Even local government offices appear that way. So maps like this can't be trusted for accuracy. Unfortunately, the main ISP for my area (Humboldt County, California) registers as Tyler, Texas.

Currently I have the Firefox add-on in my status bar, it's nice to see a spike in the live number of people on the site, it usually means something has been dugg or stumbled or getting passed around an email somewhere.

Analytics already does something similar to this, where your visitors are tracked down to a city/general area. Interesting resource.

That's a great tool. I also like the Firefox extension which lets you see the number of people online on a site in real time in the status bar. The danger for me is that I will be navel-gazing for a while! Thanks, Darren. That’s a great tool.
