I voted Africa, being from South Africa. When I clicked on the up-arrow, the number of points did not increment immediately. I had to refresh the page to see the new number of points. Poor user experience.

Sup buddy? Lagos Nigeria here.

Are you in Capetown? I heard that is the SF of these parts.

You mean not EU I guess... but how is Switzerland not really Europe?? :P

It's a running joke in Switzerland since we are in the middle of Europe but not part of the EU. At least it is very easy to find Switzerland on the Euro coin! ;)

Hey, and I thought that was the Helvetic sea :)

Just got back from holiday there. How do you get any work done in that heat!?

Cologne, Germany. I'm running a 3d printing workshop on the weekend here. If you're interested, have a look at http://dingfabrik.de/2011/11/24/3d-drucker-an-einem-wochenen... (same info in English at http://blog.reprap.org/2011/11/reprap-prusa-iteration-2-buil... ). There's only a couple spots left though.
