Where Are You? (Online World Map of Dopers)

I’m in Kansas City, KS, along with Homer, Antracite and some other folks.

Unless, of course, saying that I live in Overland Park will get me my own listing. :smiley:

**The Dalles, Oregon. ** That’s 90 miles east of Portland on the Columbia River. And yes, the “The” is part of the town’s name, and no, it’s not Dallas. Note the antepenultimate “e”. It’s from the French, Les Dalles, meaning roughly the chutes or troughs, describing a narrow part of the river near here.

Hillsboro, VA here.

Another case of “you never heard of it” I know.

Try about 50 miles NW of Washington DC or about 8 miles south of Harpers Ferry (just south of where the Potomac and Shenandoah rivers meet).

Good idea, man, Bishop should go.

Ann Arbor, MI, USA.

Great idea, Demo! If you don’t already have enough people with web experience helping you recode, I’m willing to give a try :slight_smile:

LL

Austin, Texas

St. Paul, Minnesota. That’s just east of Minneapolis, btw.

Didn’t read most of the posts to know the stance on suburbs so I’ll say Detroit, Michigan. Garden City if anybody really wants to know.

Hey, thanks, everyone, for your participation.

I was just looking at that map and it’s pretty messy. So, I just wanted to reassure you that, now that I have so many of you, I’ll be going back through and organizing all the names so I can start over and hopefully make this thing a little cleaner. At least I can prevent all the lines from intersecting each other! :smiley: Also, I may make the map a little bigger, that way the locations can be more precise and the names won’t be so blurry. I’ll also try to find a map that shows the states in the US. Let’s call this one a rough draft for now. Some people have made other suggestions that I may look into, if it looks like something I can do such as mouseovers and obfus’ idea of image mapping or whatever.

Oh yeah, I’ll be correcting my piss poor spelling as well. Sorry to those whose names I mispelled! :eek:

Houston, Texas

Just an eensy-weensy bit south of Jacksonville, FL on the west side of the St. Johns River - the teeming metropolis of Orange Park.

Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

There are other Atlantans who haven’t posted here yet, but instead of naming them I’ll assume they want to speak for themselves.

Demo, just so everyone knows, I am working on a practical example of what I meant by image mapping and mouseovers that I can send to Demo. I’ll leave it to him to decide if he likes it

Brooklyn, NY

(Or, if you must, for the sake of space, New York City).

Good luck squeezing all of us in…

Benbrook, Texas(Fort Worth), USA

in new berlin, just west of milwaukee, wisconsin

Davenport, Iowa …right on the Mississippi

Salzburg/Austria

This is a great idea!

Indiana, PA checking in, 40 miles NE of Pittsburgh

Hi LateComer!

Columbus, Ohio here…
