Linux World Map (dedoimedo.com)

Looks like I spend most of my time navigating (or should that be 'grinding'?) in the northern hemisphere.

Be honest -- how long did you stare at the map, trying to figure out where your country was, before you realized it was not based on real world geography?

I spent a good fifteen seconds, minimum. :)

Most of this is quite clever, but "The Great Communist Empire of Ubuntu" seems a bit over the top.

Neat, but not nearly as cool as the original XKCD map since that one actually had real size correspondence.

It would have been more interesting if the sizes had been based on some approximation of downloads/users/market share. The xkcd map, although a guess in some places, attempted to be grounded in something empirical.

Wonder where android would fit in this picture ?

How did they leave off "Upstream vendor"?

It could have been a funny map but every time someone tries to relate Linux with communism or other totalitarianism $deity kills a $pet.

Once and for all: Linux is about Freedom!
