I will be in portland (with intangible meg) / seattle from October 12th - 22nd. Oohhah and swinging pagan as well as rickegee are near by. Anyone else interested in a meetup?

Great idea. I say out with anonymous names.

Looks like I'm all alone down under at the moment. A US East coast meet-up looks pretty plausible from the concentrations I see.

I tried but that interface just sucks

Looris, is it the random jumping around that you find annoying? Zooming/panning the map seems to stop it.

First! (UK

there were problems with the "move this pin" link. I manage to make it work, but still a downvote to the interface.

so I added my pin to the map, how come I'm the only one on there? Did you guys all wuss out and take your's off?

I got the same problem rave, apparently I'm the only one on the map now.

same here, where'd everybody go?!

temporary glitch, methinks..looks fine now. I freaked out for a second there, but the members list was always populated.

love that frapper pic looris, are you passed out?!

Heyyyyy...I put me up there in Deadwood SD, and now I'm gone.....WTF, everyone knows I'm in Texas......grrrrrrrrr!

Fixed-

Fahrad in kuwait? I thought he was in one of the *stan countries...

A -stan country... ha ha ha... I thought only us ignorant Americans called them the Stans.... but yeah, Farhad is from a Stan, but is living in Kuwait at the moment.

aaah k.

Well, before USSR split up nobody called them *stans, but now, you can easily lose count. I've started calling them *stan and it's the first time someone tells me it's usual to do that, never heard anyone else calling them this way.

I know it may be considered sad, but I think it's normal when your country has little business with a region, not to know much about it. Especially if it's a relatively new region.

When I was a kid i LOVED geography (I like it still), especially flags, but we're talking about books written in late seventies or middle eighties

I can't see anyone.

Well looris.... just because the majority of my fellow americans do so, I wouldn't go around calling them Stans... like I said, its kind of ignorant, and I doubt that is something you want to flaunt.

I didn't read a darn thing on this thread, and I'm proud of it! Our sifterses did learned.

Looking forward to the first Kuwaiti meet-up.

hmmm.... can this map indeed be embedded?

EDIT: guess not, oh well, I tried.

If only Bin Laden had internet..

Can't be embedded in a comment, but we can make a page for it. And link it in the sidebar.

Unstickying this post from the top of Sift Talk - unsticky requested by dag.

As noted now in the body of this post, the map has been given a permanent home on a page of its own.

(For future reference, there is a link to the map on the front page sidebar in the "VideoSift Links" panel.)

Thanks Lucky!

Very cool, thanks Lucky.. glad this was of some use. Not to get all gushy, but it's tres cool to see just how international we are.

sexy map! frap frap frap!

before I add, can I change it later? I'm moving in a month

I think you should be able to move the pin... or, failing that, delete your old one and add a new one.
