So I've tried to add the clustrmap to our blog but the site simply refuses to email me a password so I can access and download the software. So I am done with it. I've already spent too much time trying to figure it out--and it doesn't really add much to our project. It would be just another cool feature to add.
Another idea: How other technology (clustrmap) can divert a participant's focus from the technology (process-blogging) she should be using--thereby adding unneeded complexity to the process.

Hi... I'm not sure what happened with the email (see our FAQ for common problems such as 'email over quota' etc), and we will now investigate, but I just wanted to make 3 points that I hope you will find interesting:
1. If you use the quick-signup (where it says 'create yours' on our home page or the top of any large map page) you get shown the code immediately, and the emailed password is only an option, i.e. you don't even need to wait for the email!
2. In your case, the HTML is as follows (BUT PLEASE REPLACE THE SQUARE BRACKETS WITH ANGLE BRACKETS... because we are not allowed to post the angle brackets like '<' and '>' with our own img code in this blog comment):

3. I hope you appreciate that we take a phenomenal amount of care and interest in our users, by 'beaming in' to blogs like this (heh, you haven't even got the map yet and we are STILL interested).
Many thanks for your interest.

Sabatino-wow-someone "beamed in" on our blog! Maybe all you had to do was publicize your problems, lol!
Anyway, I think that was a cool idea, but it is totally understandable if it just isn't possible. We can't let the technology take over what we are trying to accomplish!
