Any particular reason the main site defaults to Philly? Also, what is the utility of grouping users by physical location? Novelty?

Looking to hire a local programmer would be one use.

Ah, this makes sense. However I'd echo the question above about how the cities were chosen.

Arbitrary + github cities with sufficient data. I have a lot more cities that I'm not showing because there isn't enough data.

I toned down the colors. I think the background image is still a little busy. Will change that soon.
