Using Google Maps, ThisNext (hey, that’s us) has created a map of who’s checking out what online worldwide. It’s pretty darn addictive and highly entertaining, plus you get to discover all sorts of cool products you never knew you wanted.  Impluse shopping has never been so easy, just sit down and let the computer do all of the work.

This is also a great tool for finding out what people across the globe are shopping for.  Like this user in Eyam, United Kingdom has just discovered a Roxy bikini and is shopping for it at beckersurf.com!

My fave is when it jumps to another country.

Oh, it's in New York..no wait, it's in Canada, and now it's in Tokyo...

Now that's "social shopping."
