Default Flush Tracker lets you track your poo

Flush Tracker lets you track your poo in honour of World Toilet Day

Have you ever wondered where your poo goes once you flush the toilet? Now, thanks to the wonders of the internet, you can find out, with the new site Flush Tracker.


The path of Metro's hypothetical poo, as shown on Flushtracker

Flush Tracker allows you to enter the time and location of your most recent toilet visit, and uses Google Maps to let you track you faeces as they make their way through your local sewers - with the path the poo has traced highlighted in neon blue, like a kind of scat-fetishist version of Tron.
Watching the travels of your excrement turns out to be a strangely compelling experience, with many Twitter users enthusiastically comparing their turd trajectories. As Times columnist Caitlin Moran wrote: 'Judging by the response I'm getting, Britain has now ground to a HALT watching plop-journeys on company time. WELL DONE BRITAIN.'
The site, created by toilet cleansers Domestos, actually has a serious purpose - it's in support of today's World Toilet Day, highlighting the fact that 2.5billion people around the world don't have access to proper toilets or sewerage.
At the time of writing, our test poo had sauntered down Kensington High Street through London's classic Joseph Bazalgette-designed sewer system, then turned left onto Earl's Court Road before making a sharp right and heading in the direction of Hammersmith, and freedom. (Full disclosure: we did not actually do a poo, we made one up for the purposes of Journalism.)
