My next posts will be from incredibly far away from London. I’m going to be in Australia working on a project for the next three weeks. So it’s Davos Newbies from Oz almost until the end of the month.
Incidentally, London to Melbourne is 16,913km. When I was flinging colleagues and writers around the globe for World Link, we worked out that the two capitals that are furthest apart are Singapore and Quito (19,745km, which is as near as dammit to half the Earth’s circumference, 40,075km). I don’t think it’s possible to find any combination further apart.
Josh Marshall: “If you wanted to write the script for next year’s election to insure the closest possible result, you’d write it pretty much exactly as it’s shaping up.”
Maps and Territories may be the most exciting new weblog I’ve seen in a long time. Each post is about a map or a map fragment. I hope he can keep up the current quality and frequency.
