Google Earth
I was bored one day and decided to make a .kmz file for Google Earth with placemarkers for the folks building MechMates.
The pins are color coded for the different building stages they are at. Red - Introducing themselves Green - Building but not completed. Blue - Completed MechMates Just thought it would be interesting to see at a glance where roughly everyone is. John MechMate Members.rar |

I'm about 5km from Straight of Malacca, but nobody would want to swim there... No sharks though... just muddy & silty coast...
