I want to make a month-long thread to encourage people to delurk, even if it's only the once, and to encourage people to put their locations in their profiles so that our map is nice and peopled. Just to get people to raise their hands.
With the note that you can be as vague as putting in your country, or as precise as putting in your address--whatever you're comfortable with. The map will handle cities, zip codes, states, maybe provinces and the like. Don't want to make anyone feel we're prying.
Woo! I like David's suggestion of a once a year delurkathon.
That's a good idea. We can open it once a year.
Fun! I think I have my location on the map, but I guess I should check.

I think it's a lovely idea to encourage people to just say hi occasionally and I, as one with freaky privacy issues, dig that it can be as vague or precise as people are comfortable disclosing.
