Just (IP) Checking…
I need an IP address checking app with automated geo-tagging for my iPhone!
I was checking klusterr’s list of Beta registrants this morning and they come from all over the place. I love this internet thingy where for no apparent reason people come crawling out of the woodwork to find out what an unknown is up to.
We are based in the non-Silicon (see Brad Feld’s blog http://www.feld.com/wp/archives/2012/04/the-tragedy-of-calling-things-silicon-blah.html) part of Copenhagen. That’s the part of Copenhagen that isn’t dominated by the inward looking clique that still thrives on knowing the Skype guys! Yep, we don’t share co-working space, we don’t have angel funding, and we don’t do the startup bootcamps, but without very much effort we do have several hundred Beta registrants from Denmark, Australia, Malaysia, Brazil, Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Macedonia, Romania, all across the US, UK, Netherlands, Sweden, Canada, Italy and South Africa. Oh yeps, I almost forgot to say that’s all in the last seven days.
I think we got the globe covered. That iPhone image on our klusterr landing page really is a powerful aid to building interest in consumer web apps. It carries a story all it’s own without the need for text.
Oh, and I found the IP tracking tool with mapping functionality…in the App Store!
