TweetMe.me – Take a Look Around You
I decided to release my Twitter-based map after playing around with it in one of my upcoming projects.
This site basically tries to figure out where you are through various methods and fallbacks, does a search on Twitter and plots recent and geocoded tweets onto a map.

Enjoy!
