I have just made/ruined your day.

TL;DR - it's a site where you can keep track of all of the counties you've visited in the US and Canada (whatever they call 'counties' there). I've only got 479 US counties and a smattering of Canadian ones, which is a drop in the bucket compared to what some of you will be able to claim.

If you register there, make sure to post your username. Mine is bs_35 .

It would take forever for me to get down to the county level! I've been to every state save Hawaii, but I couldn't possibly tell you what counties... I can't even name all the ones in California I've been to.

Yeah, my map is pretty East Coast-centric. But I can thank this group of degenerates for my lone WI county, as well as the St. Louis-to-Michigan swath.

My map looked quite similar to that until I met my wife, who promptly dragged me west, and I'm so glad she did. What do the bright green counties signify?

Those are places I've lived...I was playing around with formatting options.

The video tags are simplified (because vB 4.2 is pretty smart): just stick the URL inside [video]URL[ /video]. No more [youtube] etc. Works for youtube, vimeo, and a few other services.
