Visual TraceRoute in Google Earth
Another web-widget I wasted an afternoon hacking together:
I’m a Google Earth addict, and wanted to do something ‘useful’ with it - here’s my attempt:
You can now run a traceroute (tracert in Windows) and upload the ‘report’ to this site, and it’ll spew a KML file at you with all the hops, with vague descriptions, and a path linking them (at least the ones with resolved locations!)
You can find this nifty little tool here.
There’s a comment address there, but feel free to leave (spam-free) comments in this post, too.
For the technically inclined, I’m resolving the IP addresses using MaxMind’s free GeoLiteCity database.
