A Slanted View.

This is the map Blogger stats uses to indicate the countries from which visits have come. Consider the projection they use, noting that the equator passes through the northern half of South America and the southern part of Africa.

 

 

It's interesting to see how blatantly it exaggerates the Americas, Europe and most of Asia, while making the southern hemisphere seem small and therefore unimportant. I think if I were a resident of South America, Africa, Indonesia, Australia or New Zealand, I would be most displeased.
