Added. Surely I'm not the only FF'er in Africa? - Neill Adamson

@Neill, that's great. You just got us to the 6th continent. I highly doubt we can hit 7 as there surely can't be someone from Antarctica that FriendFeeds. - Mark Krynsky

The Antarctica challenge: OK, here's the plan: we need to contact Eli Duke (http://twitter.com/elisfanclub) he's tweeting from McMurdo Station, Antarctica. We have until February (some background I just found: on his 1st stint in the Antarctic he was a dish washer. In 2006 he wrote a functioning RubyOn Rails site, got burned out and tried to give it away on Craig's List...unsuccessfully--it's back online now http://listyourlist.com/ .

Alrighty then, I just sent Eli a tweet (http://friendfeed.com/e... ) with a plea. I hope I'm not taken for a crazy. Hmm, I know that could be my first reaction. - Micah Wittman

Why is Erhan Erdogan in the middle of the atlantic ocean on the map? Is he in the Bermuda Triangle or something? lol - Alan Le

@Micah, great job on recruitment. Eli has added himself and we now have all 7 continents filled. - Mark Krynsky

No Greenland luv, tho... - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)

Erhan probably got moved accidentally. When I got to the page, and was moving the map, I accidently grabbed someone and moved them to the middle of the Atlantic. Thankfully, it was someone who used a special icon, so it was easy to search and put them back. - Anika

I put my self on the map... - Aline

Added, in the Norway. :) - Daniel Bruce

Added me in Texas! - Phil G

Added myself in the west Chicago suburbs. :) - Cheryl Jones

@Mark Such Coolness! And thanks Eli (http://friendfeed.com/elisfan...) - Micah Wittman

Bump for Leather Donut. - Rochelle

Hmm, apparently I'm just up the road from Haggis. - Rob H.

I just added myself. Curious - how do you get different placemarks? I like the Google-looking ones that aren't quite raindrops. - Tamar Weinberg

Just an addendum to Spidra's explanation: To go back and edit, click the pushpin then click the "Edit" button (look waaay to the left on the page). Then you can click the icon to change, and you'll see Save button next to "Edit" - Micah Wittman

Oh cool. Nice job reviving this guys. Hopefully we get another good round of users to add themselves. - Mark Krynsky

Added! :) - AJ Batac

Neat! I was the product manager for My Maps when it launched. It's really cool to see it being used this way : ) - Jess Lee

Wow Jess. That must be so great to see your work utilized by others. It's definitely been a smashing success here. Thanks for sharing. - Mark Krynsky

+Jess! - Micah Wittman

Kind of frustrating to see how much time I spent on this map and then to find out someone had probably saved their changes over mine - hence mine was gone this entire time. Others should also check for this. In any event, thanks, Spidra, for the tip :) My other pet peeve is Google Maps scrolling incessantly out of nowhere. (Hi Jess.) - Tamar Weinberg

Added myself yesterday. I notice, thought, that you have to flip to page 2 ... Can't we show all the FFers on one map, regardless of the page ? - Ahsan Ali aka. Slick

How do I get myself added to the map? - Alex Scoble

done - Eric Reboisson

@Alex Scoble click the link in the main post, search your location, and add a placemark (the blue mark on left top of the map) - Eric Reboisson

done - Orsan Erksoy
