#2Looks like I spend most of my time navigating (or should that be 'grinding'?) in the northern hemisphere.

#3Be honest -- how long did you stare at the map, trying to figure out where your country was, before you realized it was not based on real world geography?
I spent a good fifteen seconds, minimum. :)

I didn't, but then I'm familiar with the social network map the OP referenced so I kinda had a head start on knowing it wasn't real world based - http://xkcd.com/802/

#5Most of this is quite clever, but "The Great Communist Empire of Ubuntu" seems a bit over the top.
Re: Linux World Map
#6Neat, but not nearly as cool as the original XKCD map since that one actually had real size correspondence.
Re: Linux World Map
#7It would have been more interesting if the sizes had been based on some approximation of downloads/users/market share. The xkcd map, although a guess in some places, attempted to be grounded in something empirical.

There is a place on the map called "Archland" in the top center, right below The Great Compile and next to Gentoo.
Of course, I find that odd, since you mostly don't have to compile if you're just an end user of Arch.

Arch is there - look for "Archland", top middle.
