However, from what I've seen on some media, there are more goals for Germany than for the North American continent (at least for today).

The popups what shows up when click on ex "Stations on/off" will never disappear in Android default browser. This do those buttons totally useless....

There was some major update today due to memory leaks and graphic issues with Chrome.
A small feature has also been added: In "Stations on" mode, the stations whose signals where really used to compute the location are shown in pink instead of green. It's just to get a very quick overview which makes it possible to see the distribution of stations at a glance. Additionally the lines of those stations have some more weight, so you can still see the difference on higher zoom levels when most stations are out of view.

That's why it's still beta...

Great Job !
Is it possible to give own station(s) an other color/symbol ... ?

Is it possible to indicate on the realtime map when a station detects a strike, even if it's not used for positioning the strike ? ( aka a brighter green color for the station as for those that get the line drawn to it ? )
I notice that when I have my "signals" page open in one window, and the realtime screen in another, that my signal "beeps" quite a lot (reals detected strikes according to waveform), but the stations seems almost "dead" on the realtime window.
I even have heard the beeps interval repeated by the ticks from the realtime window, a few sec's
later... but still seems like a dead station at the realtime....
Some of the fun when you have a station at a distance from the "crowd", is to see how far your station is detecting strikes...

performance is very bad on google maps with chrome

A beep does not mean a valid, or a usable 'stroke'. It beeps on any signal, noise, car, pet fence, switch, etc that causes a trigger.... If you're not seeing signals on the Participants page, or low values, or not seeing them on the map, it could mean that most of your signals are noise.

I know that there is some noise, and I had it worse earlier.
But lately it seems to be a lot of good signals, according to waveform, and the status page :
SignalsReceived: 36255, Good: 31529, Sent: 31511
Signal RateLast second: 0, Last 60s: 0.7
as of :
RTC time2014-07-15 17:05:38
Running for13h, 5m
I also see that I get "credit" for almost every strike closer to home, but more rarely when there is a bigger distance.
Of course, this is also dependent on signal strength, and with more distance, the weaker the signals will be.
Ill make a video to show what I mean, and put it on Youtube...
