    Default Correspondence map

    I'm getting loads of mail for InCoWriMo so I decided to map out where all my mail is coming from and going to. So far I've only added about a weeks worth but it is already filling out. It's fun seeing where the letters are going and I love seeing a place as I read their letter.

    I had the same sort of idea and started on after last years InCoWriMo. This is what resulted. I haven't added anything from this year.

    If you mean Australia I have one there so far but I am sure I have others to add once I get to the rest of my letters.

    If you're asking about how to see it you just grab the map and slide it over.

    If you are talking about the place with the yellow brick road I am uncertain how to respond.

    Finished adding all the letters I have at my office. 138 total places (as of 2/14/14), some have multiple letters and people but it is only represented once per city.

    No final map. I plan to let it just flow into a permanent site wide correspondence map for anything sent to or from PPIL. I'll try to get some final numbers/info when I reply to more of the stack covering my desk though.
