I was just reading thru the thread from last August about this forums 1st birthday. It is amazing how big it has become and how many torts litterly owe their lives to this site!
I thought it might be interesting to see where all the people come from, and where the torts live that are served by this site. I know there is a place where members can put where their from in your CP, but it might be fun to see a map with the countrys and cities highlighted.
In just a few short days, I have seen posts from all over, the US, UK, Dubi, Canada, S. Africa, and I'm sure there are many others.
You truly run an international web site here, and I think it would be fun to see just how wide spread it is. WHAT DO YOU THINK?

these are our top 10 countries by visits [not set must mean the country was not detectable]:


this map goes all the way back to day one and shows the countries with visitors in green. those without visitors are white.

Josh, Thanks so much for your effort! I know this must not have been an easy task. Were you even surprised by how widespread the sites usage is? It looks to me like the site serves the entire world minus those countries where the internet does not exist yet.

Thank you Josh, it is amazing to see that a lot of people coming from different countries come on this site and share the same passion : tortoises

Boy looking at a map really gives you an amazing perspective at just how far our site reaches.
And we can only imagine how many torts and keepers we have touched.
Great Job Josh, You must feel really proud that your site has done so well and continues to grow and extend its friendly hand to those world wide.
