I have two systems on the open internet, firewalled and logging dropped packets. Every night for literally years I see something like this in my logwatch emails:

From 61.139.105.163 - 6 packets to tcp(2301,8085,8088,8089,9000,9415)

Each night this IP or one extremely similar to it hits both systems (which are not located together strangely enough). Geobytes.com tells me this originates in Beijing China.

Henceforth I am pleased to announce that I will not begin censoring search results to accommodate the Chinese in the first place.

This is the current state of Granola integration with Google Maps, running inside a PyGTK application using PyWebkit. Still need to switch the default to satellite instead of just a map, and correct the centering/zooming, but getting very close.

Hope to write up a post soon on how to do this, but if anyone is curious the code has all been pushed to git.
