Social networking site TravBuddy, have launched a new feature to the site. Travellers can check off a list of countries that they’ve visited and automatically generate a world map with the countries that they’ve visited coloured in.

You can, then either link to your map, or copy the generated code into a webpage or blog, so that your visitors can see where you have visited, and what percentage of the World’s countries you have visited – for interest, I’ve only been to 6% of the World, so, it looks like I’m going to have to get some trips booked for next year.

If you register an account with TravBuddy, you can update your calendar, and you don’t have to continue to update the code. There’s tons of other features on the site, including reviews, travel guides and you can create your own blog. It’s good fun, so go check it out.
