Great idea! I imagine there can be a lot of interesting reports and this can turn into an awesome long living project.

Here is some feedback for you. I tried to add my own map, but the process was a little bit hard ... it will be more simple if I can edit all in once, maybe some table with inputs. Going one by one and clicking edit on each country is too long process IMPO.

Also "Assign Random Colors" action changes everything, it will be cool to have some revert "Random Colors Action" button.

Thanks for taking time to try it. - Do you think importing data from csv can make the process faster? - Also do you think adding country on the fly would be useful in case user wants to add a country?

> Do you think importing data from CSV can make the process faster?

Yes, I would like to see import from CSV as an option. Lots of people will have data already in the file, so asking them to enter one by one can be pretty unattractive option for them. For example, I created https://techevents.co/ - tech events aggregator and have a huge DB of tech events. So I was thinking to add a map of "Tech Communities per Country" (or Tech Events Per country) based on avg monthly attendees count that I can get from DB report. And in that case CSV option will be great for me, I will just export DB report to CSV and import to http://www.mapjot.com/

Not sure, I didn't feel the need of it myself.
