Hi everyone,

I don't know if the author(s) ever thought of using this tool as part 
of a group classroom activity, but My World66 might be a fun web site 
for a class, especially an ESOL class.

<http://www.world66.com/myworld66>

My World66 allows you to select the countries you've visited (or were 
born in, or whatever) and produce a map of the world with those 
countries in red. It even provides you with some code so that you can 
put the resulting map on your own web site by if you want, which is a 
nice touch.

Jeff
