5000 thumbs-ups! plus smooth panning…

Just hit 5000 thumbs-ups on stumbleupon!
In other news, I made it so that when you click on a location, the map smooth-pans to that location. I’m not sure whether it’ll give folks too much of a sense of vertigo, but initial checks of the logs indicate that people are actually clicking more– i.e., the panning effect appears to make the site more enjoyable.
Also, I’m trying a different google ads layout (along the right-hand edge of the screen) to see whether it’ll make much of a difference. I think that it may be a good deal more annoying than a strip along the bottom, though, so I don’t know whether I’ll stick with it. We’ll see.
