I was about to put my vote down for 'alien' but decided I needed to keep my true identity a secret just a little while longer. Just until the mothersh...

I mean I'm from North America. Central North America, south of Canada and north of Mexico. If North America were a hamburger, I'd be the delicious charred cowflesh right in the middle.

Don't worry, Tigerblade. Your identity's safe with me.

I have a geomap that shows where people REALLY are from -- or at least where their ISP is based. Of course, this poll will only show where voting members are from. My geomap will show where all visitors and members hail from.

Should I post it, or do you want to wait a bit for the poll results to come in?

Jeff - I'm guessing you're talking about the geomap from GoogleAnalytics? I'm always amazed to look at the map for my site. I mean, I expect mostly American visitors, but when I see dots in places like Indonesia, the Congo, and the like... it's a curious feeling.

Jeff, yes, you can post the geomap, I don't mind. Silly question: does one have to be registered in BBB before being allowed to vote in a poll? Or can anyone vote just like that?

Ok, here's the geomap. And yes, it IS interesting to see where people come from (and where they DON'T come from).

I can see my little dot from here

But who're the big dots in southern California, England and Indonesia?
