They been keeping with this ticker type for awhile (nothing wrong with it, if it aint broke dont fix it), but maybe they could upgrade to a Expandable version. Keep the orig look but add a Expandable button that goes to a Map of USA, and All the countrys our Troops are in. <-- so can show everyone where they are and, and that they donate!

You already see where people are from who donate So Why NOT, put a red dot on the map at that persons location, The Names can appear as usual on both tickers but on the map have there name in a bubble, with a line going to there dot. Seems Easy enough. only thing to figure is people donating in or around the same city how that should look.

I Wouldnt want them to have it so u can interact like hovering over a dot and seeing that persons name and stuff. unless yall think it wouldnt matter, LMK what you think.

Check this out for some ideas:

It works for people that don't have flash installed too.

That would be awesome!! Maybe a heat map that causes competition between states?? as long as we have the data why could someone with some skills not create something like that?

Not sure how this list is generated, but it contains the recent donors:

That is the data feed that the ticker uses. If we get a developer to build the heat map page they could scrape that info every 2-5 mins

A heat map would be very interesting.

So is anyone interested in doing this? With another money-bomb coming up, I figured it was relevant...
