Hmmm, looks like your IP-address could not be recognized. Well, maybe it works now.

Yep is working now, but since I am so close to MSCL.com the names are right on top of each other :oops: sorry

*g*, yeah, I expected that to happen sooner or later. But not *so* soon ;-). I'll let it work this way for the time being, but at some point I'll remove the names from the image.

I'm on the map. :D I used the zip code search feature to get the correct map coordinates.

This is great! I'd like to know where AU is on the map, but no need to ruin the map with it, just like to know visually where stuff is going.

I'm on the map! I didn't enter precise coordinates, but let the site detect my IP.

The New Jersey is going to look mighty crowded.

Is there anyway to zoom in so that you can read the names better.

Great project!

:D

Oh, goes to show you how much I know about longitude and latittude. I did look up my coordinates, and was given 41.846797 N, 73.010369 W. So thats what I entered. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that West meant it needed to be a negative number.

I'm not actually stuck between Russia and China. Really.

Oh well...

No problem, I added the negative sign. The east coast is really getting crowded :)

I know. Judging by the map (I'm so tempted to refer to it as "The Big Board" since I just watched "Dr. Strangelove"), Candy's all by her self.

Yup, I'm singing Eric Carmen songs and no one can hear me.

:mrgreen:

(I know who else is in the Bay Area but if they want to stay anonymous, it's okay with me - as my boyfriend said as he saw me entering the coordinates, "You know they can come find you now.")

:lol:

I will use your coordinates to come serenade you with "Hungry Eyes" and "Walk Away Renee" followed by "On Broadway" and an encore of "All By Myself."

:twisted:

That's great!

So CG's alone on the West coast... Prize for most lone member winging it's way to your co-ordinates :)

I'm closest to the meridian line or whatever you call it (actually, it's -0.17 according to your apparently blisteringly accurate database thingy... I'm sitting no more than a mile from it). Do I get a prize for that?

I'm not even going to start thinking about how that thing knows where you are just from a set of numbers... but thanks for being a geek and getting us such a cool toy, Sab!
:D

Ok, I just checked the map again just for fun and this time it says I'm in the Netherlands. I'm still in Sweden. *lol*
Only difference is I'm at school in Stockholm and not in my hometown.
