I recently started a new Barrow-Downs Member Map (http://www.frappr.com/barrowdowns) . Please take the time to show us where your barrow is.
Thanks!
It's beautiful. I appear to be the only one in North Carolina though. What's up with that? In the immortal words of Timbaland & Co., "C'mon and raise up."

Nice map, but I can't believe it has Forfar on it. There are only fourteen people and some sheep in Forfar. ;)

I particularly like how, when you click on Lhuna, the screen goes grey in protest. ;)

EDIT: I just noticed that when you zoom in on me as far as it can go, I'm actually somewhere off Manila Bay, on the Philippine part of the South China Sea. :eek:

How bizarre - Hookbill's map put me in a random road in Barton - this makes it look as if I am about to throw myself under the intercity...... :eek:

*Comes out of dormancy for a bit* Whoa...that's awesome.
I'm the only one in my area methinks. But look at all that empty space over in the Central European/Asian area... :eek:

Well this time I live in a pub (and an expensive one at that), while davem has taken up residence in the city's only remaining Georgian square. On Hookbill's map I lived at the University while davem lived at the municipal tip. :D
Can this software thingie only pinpoint actual addresses for people living in the US?

Actually, mine hit dangerously close to where I actually live: rather than being placed in a canal, like last time, my pinpointed 'barrow' it's probably just under half a mile down the road from my house. Accurately placed indeed...*nervous laughter* ;)
Anyway, I seem to have taken up residence in a field quite near my house, where they keep the most beautiful horses and occasionally the odd goat or two. Quite fitting for my Rohirrim Innkeeper, doncha think? ;)

Why so few west-half USAers? Are they just now getting the Internet out there??

Well, I don't think that is quite a problem. Just tell Wayne not to put his in and you're good. :D

Lal: For us in the US the map just asks for our zip (postal) code and it puts it (I guess) in the center of that small area. But what's hilarious is that it put me right on top of one of my friend's houses, a few miles away from my own!

For almost every other website I frequent, I'm the only west-coaster. I feel so alone and isolated. Come on, West Coast! Get with the program!

If you go to the profile section of the map, it will allow you to position your marker in a more specific spot.

Lord Wight, on my map I had a little logo to go at the top. I thought you might like to use the same one:

The West Coast is obviously too uncool to join BD. ;)
For now, I shall only put in where I go to college...

My name is Jon Jonson, I come from Wisconsin , I work in the lumber- woods there
When I go down the street, the people I meet, They say... "What's your name?"
...and I say

Okay, and I'm the only one laughing right now. :p Needless to say, I added myself to the map.
