Twinkle, twinkle, little cache...
A clever Frenchman has generated a lovely video of the progression of caches placed in France, and generously published the Python source for it.
There's a Kiwi version on YouTube now, as well. (View it in HD and as large as you can!)
Would one of you computer whizkids like to do something similar for Oz? (I'm sure someone has a complete Australian GPX file)
(This stupid forum software will let me preview the code, but not submit it, but you can find the Python code at http://forum.geocaching-france.com/suje ... 610&page=2)

I'm not sure what the trick is, 180 odd requests and that's just from the one I've hosted on my box at home it just works. Try right-click the link, save the file and then try to open it. It's encoded with MPEG4 if that helps.
For a newer, slightly nicer version, try that kiwimoose url with nzcachesv2.avi instead or a more reliable Youtube version.

I did something similar like this for tassie in 2005, funnily enough I went hunting for the code the other day to generate it to do another one.... cant find the code though, and I'm kind of sidetracked now by the shiny new server
<hmmm, would make a good render box..... >
Hopefully someone will do one of these soon, will be cool to watch!

It's interesting to see the regional clusters grow around Benalla, Shep, Wang and Albury/Wodonga
I can pick out many caches I know

VERY NICE, well done all concerned.(aka C@W)<p>
Amazing to watch regional cities, regional areas and specific outback highways all grow.
