    Default member map

    I was totally bored today, but really didn't want to do much, so I grabbed a google api and started messing with it. I have always been interested in where the members of the forum are from, so I mapped a few. I can add more if anyone wants -- just send me a PM of where you are. You could actually put the dot exactly at street and house level, but for privacy reasons, I only put it at a level that is already specified with your info on the forum. Also, the url is protected with a robot file, so it won't be googled.

    click here (temporarily disabled in lieu of new map below)

    1 day later.....

    I found a free commercial mapping service. It has some ads, but not too bad. The main advantage is that you can add your own stick pin. Give it a try.....

    Totally cool! Thanks for putting a dot for me! It'd be great to have this on the Home page.

    Yeah, maybe.... We'll see where it goes. Right now it's just "messing around"..... :-)

    Do you know why gaps between fingers were created?
    So that someone who is special to you, comes and fills those gaps by holding your hand
