COMPELLED!
Ok, so here it is. Take a screenshot of your in game map showing the systems you have visited and post it on your blog. There, done. That's it. Real simple. You can talk about it if you want but its not necessary.
Here is mine (click to see full sized):

Small yellow means few number of vists to big red meaning tons of visits.
Over 2.5 years in game and I've visited less than half of known space. Of course, this feature didn't start working until mid 2007 so it doesn't include my time in Omen when we were in Dekelien region, or before that when I was in No Quarter and travelling into Tribute and Venal regions. Nor does it show my time in Strife 1.0 when we went down to Itrin in Genesis region and bombed around for a week or two. And my Placid region markers would be a lot brighter if it went back to 2006.
Andrew and I were talking about the boredom of travelling far in Eve and this map confirms a fact for me that when I move to an area, I tend to stay there. Hence I can map my corporate history on the map as groupings of visits:

That line of yellow dots through Delve and Querious? That was one time when I went to help a battle for our alliance's allies and then made my way back in an interceptor. The Minmatar space is so red due to the times I spent running level four missions and then the time I spent in Factional Warfare last summer.
Remember: COMPELLED!
