From a user experience perspective, a question to consider is "Do users enjoy logging in?" If the answer is 'no' consider making logging in optional (opt-in) and making the product better until people are opting-in or making the product better by creating features that don't require logging in. Either strategy reduces friction when potential users want to learn more about the project.
Good luck.
[1]: Actually I don't want to login at all. And over the long term, I don't want to log in with anything more cumbersome than Hacker News.
Here is some feedback for you. I tried to add my own map, but the process was a little bit hard ... it will be more simple if I can edit all in once, maybe some table with inputs. Going one by one and clicking edit on each country is too long process IMPO.
Also "Assign Random Colors" action changes everything, it will be cool to have some revert "Random Colors Action" button.
Yes, I would like to see import from CSV as an option. Lots of people will have data already in the file, so asking them to enter one by one can be pretty unattractive option for them. For example, I created https://techevents.co/ - tech events aggregator and have a huge DB of tech events. So I was thinking to add a map of "Tech Communities per Country" (or Tech Events Per country) based on avg monthly attendees count that I can get from DB report. And in that case CSV option will be great for me, I will just export DB report to CSV and import to http://www.mapjot.com/
> Also do you think adding country on the fly would be useful in case user wants to add a country?
Not sure, I didn't feel the need of it myself.
