Looks like some Norwegians have you beat for furthest from the equator though! :laugh:
Rio Grande? Landscape is supposed to be spectacular in that region. ;D

Rio Grande is not spectacular in itself. But drive some 30 mins down the road towards south and the landscape turns quite beautiful. We like to compare our highlands to the New Zealand Alps.
Any other Irish on here? :)
Plus, it looks like Melbourne is better, er, I mean bigger, than Sydney ;D
Quite a few from Saigon, Vietnam. I'm wondering who they are :)
HP, by "a few" you mean two guys?
Awaiting for that beer you suggested a few years ago, game time.

I'm trying to learn if there are more than 2. Then we can throw an offline meeting

Are you from Ushuaia? Tierra Del Fuego is an amazing place. I was there a year and a half ago!

From Rio Grande actually, about 200km due North. It is a beautiful island and place to live I'd say :)
It appears I'm at the 2nd most southern point on the map, Dunedin New Zealand
;D
Is there really people from these countries in Africa? :P
Wouldn't you get a more reliable source checking IP's? I mean the NSA does it, surely sami can do it as well :D
Well, that data is from Google so I guess it is already "NSA approved" :P
(and the maps measure hits/visits to the site)

that is indeed correct, I know 4-5(that plays aws) I think....
Am I the only one from Mozambique ?
;D
I thought you were from Zimbabwe, Robert?
Looks like Houston got a few blips 8)
I wonder how many of these countries are AWS players travelling and checking on their airline versus actually living there. Seriously, who is playing AWS in Botswana? Tanzania has a GDP of about $550 per capita and $1/week for AWS would be nearly 10% of an average person's income. Interestingly enough, no one is playing in Cuba or North Korea :)

Internet is very limited in these nations, so that may be a reason :)
And about the rest..... when you travel through Botswana or Tanzania, you should have different priorities set than managing your airline. In fact, staying alive should be high up on the agenda LOL
I know for a fact that in Cuba the internet access is only limited by the cost of it. For a 15min access it'd cost around 15USD, and for people who barely make that kind of money in one month, it turns almost prohibitive.

Castro nationalized (government takeover) the phone company operations on the island... If I recall, it was an American company who built the network there and it really hasn't been a massive amount of international connection made since then (1959). They only recently switched over to digital phone service. They are not connected to the US network. They rank #154 globally for number of internet hosts at 3,244... for comparison, the USA has 505,000,000. Cuba has one earth-to-satellite installation that the Soviets installed.
People require special permission to get computers, let alone access to the web. Those few people with permission must often pay in non-Cuban currencies.
