Someone asked me to show some statistics concerning the countries that
I get the votes from. So I took a look at all the people who have voted
at least once in the first six months of this year, and counted those
who are living in the same country. Here are the results:
# voters country # voters country | # voters continent
----------------------- ----------------------- | ---------------------
170 USA 2 Belgium | 190 America
23 Netherlands 2 Thailand | 125 Europe
19 UK 2 Poland | 18 Asia
19 Canada 2 Spain | 16 Australia
18 Germany 2 Iceland | --- +
17 Finland 1 Ireland | 349 total
15 Australia 1 Switzerland |
11 Sweden 1 Brazil |
10 Denmark 1 Turkey |
7 Taiwan 1 Italy |
6 Norway 1 Hungary |
5 Singapore 1 New Zealand |
4 France --- + |
4 Russia 349 total |
4 Austria
Does anyone know if these results are, to a certain extent, a good
reflection of the Internet community? I'm curious.
Jurgen.
