Can this be divided per drawer's country? I'd love to see how Americans draw the world map, versus, say, British or German.
Hi all,
I created "Borderline", a border drawing game a few weeks ago.
Since then, thousands of people have played it and I have accumulated over 37,000 drawings, which are now all stacked on a blank canvas.
This allows you to see the world as people remember it.
You can also check similar maps for the US, France, the UK, Germany, Australia, and Switzerland.
Alternatively, you can also draw a few borders yourself (free, no signin required)
That was quite fun, and I enjoyed the data mining aspect of it. Quite edifying, thanks!
Thanks for your kind words. I love how the sum of all the errors still makes something that is correct :)
Unrelated: what is "habibi"? To me (and I know nothing), it always sounded like a pejorative term for franco-arabs but I never bothered to validate
It means “my love” in Arabic but you can also use it with friends
So in this case it would roughly be "my lovely code"? Or "Code, my loves"?
It doesn't mean too much beside a funny name, and my love for the Arabic language
It just means "my beloved"/"my dear".
