Sightsmap – How many people are taking pictures?

Have you ever looked at Panoramio? It is a site that Google acquired a while ago where users can post pictures of places and tag them with their location. It’s a good site to visit if you are going to travel, as you can see the sights before you go.

Here is a zoomed in view of Southern Ontario. You can see that Niagara Falls is popular.
