so there is this new social mapping tool called frappr. you can create a map, and either post it on your site or send people to it on frappr. people can add themselves to your map with a picture and other information.
so, for example, if you wanted to identify yourself as someone who likes church, and you wanted to see other people who like church, you might create or join this map.
here's an even more interesting use- nintendo ds lite enthusiasts learned that some stores were carrying the new unit before the planned release date, so they created this map to show which stores were selling them early, where they were located, and how many units were available.
(can you say 'geek')
so of course, i'm thinking in my head about different ways the map could be used, and i'm doing a couple searches to explore, when i stumble upon this little gem... (and laughed my ass off)

I too giggled at the vast emptiness that is W's friend map.
