Title: How about a map of the world?
Post by PRESTONERR on Dec 18^th, 2011 at 12:29pm

I was just wondering about seeing how many Nerdz are out there from different places. I can see most of the Nerdz that are frequently posting are in just a few different places, but what about everyone else? It would be kinda slick to have some kinda map or globe or something that you could stick your pin to, or have it numbered to represent how many Nerdz are from that region. I don't know, just a thought.
Trying to keep Tom and Brian busy ;)

Hey Preston,
I will be going to the ATE again this year as I have for the last 5 or 6. Last year I ran into Nathan Birch from Chicago in the trade show after classes were done for the day. We talked for a fair amount of time, and if memory serves it was Friday night when we met.
I hope to see you there! 8-)
Doug S.

Hey rod couldnt this be done easier with a computer program and a list of all the nerdz and where they live......hmmmm ;)

im arizona as under ernest logo, the neat thing about nerdz locations is we are spread out over the world, that makes it hard to make a map that tells customers to go to the nearest nerd shop (like the iatn does), they may be towed for hundreds or thousands of miles to get service for that slipped timing belt

Don't know if I'm a nerd, though :-/

Look at the map, zoom out a few steps and look at the amount of water and islands. Welcome to the most beautiful archipelago in the world (they say). What do I know, I've lived here all my life so I'm a little too used to this to think it would be anything special ?

Yeah....I noticed you guys wanted to do this. So...I hope you enjoy the new member maps feature soon to appear after we do the forums upgrade ;)

It's not pefect and not every region of the world is represented but most of it is covered.
