I was blogwalking at 3 AM when I found an interesting article. It's written on the article "When you were kids, have you ever thought about digging your backyard, creating a tunnel until it reaches the other surface of the Earth" well, more or less the blog owner wrote about that. I though "Huh? Well, I've ever thought about that before when I was a kid." Of course it's almost impossible to dig a tunnel from my backyard to the other side of the Earth. Everyone knows how (super) hot the core of the Earth is. But then I opened a link posted by the writer, it's about 'Antipode Map'.
In geography, the antipodes of any place on Earth is its antipodal point; that is, the region on the Earth's surface which is diametrically opposite to it. Two points which are antipodal to one another are connected by a straight line through the centre of the Earth. Full article at Wikipedia. Double-click on or move the original map to set a marker on a desired location. The antipode map will automatically show it's antipodal location.
Here's my location at the moment
The antipodal point of my place of living at the moment is
COLUMBIA!!!
So, my backyardigans neighbors are Columbians, how about yours?
