Nice. Some ideas:

— Add "my location" as an option in the searchbar.

— Show results based on the IP right away.

— Show a feed of the latest commits by people in a location.

The standard convention on HN to show off stuff you made is doing a Show HN[1]. This will get more attention, as it's favored by the algorithm and some people check only the Show HN page and not the main page.

A quick tool I built that allows users to rank the top GitHub users by location, utilizing the GitHub Developer program. The project still needs work in relation to load times, responsiveness, etc. but I'm pretty happy with the result so far.

Also leave a star on the repo! :) https://github.com/sheeehy/Geo-Git-v1
