Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

simple yet interesting interactive (with flash) personal world and travel time map.
...choose the center of your world and watch it go, then you can follow instructions on top
for travel options, then choose different 'spaces' for diffferent effects (it's helpful to zoom in) 0 -

Map of Equatorial Guinea, São Tomé and Príncipe,
The Cameroon line is a 1,600 km (990 mi) chain of volcanoes. It includes islands in the Gulf of Guinea and mountains that extend along the border region of eastern Nigeria and western Cameroon, from Mount Cameroon on the Gulf of Guinea north and east towards Lake Chad.
the Cameroon line consists of six offshore volcanic swells that have formed islands or seamounts.
The southernmost in the chain is the Equatorial Guinean island of Annobón, also known as Pagalu, with an area of about 17.5 km2 (6.8 sq mi)
São Tomé Island is 854 km2 (330 sq mi) in area, lying almost on the equator. The entire island is a massive shield volcano which rises from the floor of the Atlantic Ocean, over 3,000 m (10,000 ft) below sea level, and reaches 2,024 m (6,640 ft) above sea level
Príncipe is the smaller of the two major islands of São Tomé and Príncipe, with an area of 136 km2 (53 sq mi) The island is surrounded by several smaller islands. As with São Tomé, the island has always been isolated from the mainland and therefore has many unique species of plants and animals.
Bioko (part of the Republic of Equatorial Guinea) is just 32 km (20 mi) off the coast of Cameroon, on the continental shelf. The island used to be the end of a peninsula attached to the mainland, but was cut off when sea levels rose 10,000 years ago at the end of the last ice age. With an area of 2,017 km2 (779 sq mi) it is the largest island in the Cameroon line, and the site of Malabo, the capital of Equatorial Guinea
Two large seamounts lie between São Tomé and Príncipe, and between Principe and Bioko.0 -

I guess it's a nice illustration of a the combination of a volcanic hotspot and tectonic plate movement. A similar process made the Galapagos, the Azores, and also the Hawaiian islands. That's why they are kind of strewn along a line.greenspurs wrote: »And ?0 -

The Dublin functional conurbation. It is official, Dundalk and Gorey are now suburbs of Dublin, welcome to big schmoke lads.
Honorable mentions to Borris í gContae Laois. You are culchies no more, sorry.
https://irelandafternama.wordpress.com/2010/12/21/mapping-the-true-extent-of-dublins-functional-urban-region-what-the-best-available-evidence-tells-us/
The spatial extent of Dublin’s functional urban region or commuting hinterland has served as a key indicator and point of discussion on the ‘sprawl’ of Dublin and extent of uncontrolled urban expansion over the Celtic tiger period. The location of unfinished and partially vacant housing estates in some locations suggests that private developers significantly overestimated the extent of the ‘Dublin market’. The analysis below serves to map the spatial extent of the Dublin functional urban region and identifies the share of the Dublin workforce commuting from the Mid-East Region (Kildare, Meath and Wicklow) and beyond.0 -
