Comments on: Making the Internet More America http://electricpulp.com/blog/2007/10/08/making-the-internet-more-america/ Just another awesome blog.

That said... "the guy is kind of a nut". I haven't seen much of his stuff, but why does he remind me of Steve Carell (40-year old virgin), but not as funny. Looks like an outrageously fun project though. A quality site through and through, very graphic with a bit of panache.

It's been fun to watch the site as people uncover all the dark corners. A couple notes... DB: We'd love to. Thanks for asking. Your posting there puts you in charge, right? Huph: Yeah, that was the lighting for the shoot, I think. I'm going to see what we can do about alternating the shots on the front of the site (there are three). Ian: You mean, there's something outside of North America? I guess you learn something every day. Mike: I know it! Kinda hard to flip a photo of a guy like Mr. Colbert without it being obvious. It was bugging me too. We've got more, so I'll see if any of them fit into the layout for when we start rotating. Coldbear: Stay tuned for international support. We're currently getting a handle on the number of pins we have already. We'll work on expanding the horizons shortly. Coldbear cont'd: Yeah, I hear you. Caitlin: The site is a living breathing entity. Always changing. Good luck. Thanks again everyone. It's been a blast to work with the Colbert team. They're extremely smart and really fun. Stay tuned for updates... Thanks everyone for the comments. It’s been fun to watch the site as people uncover all the dark corners.

It's always nice to see a site look really crisp and dynamic that doesn't rely on using flash. It's driving me nuts that there are easter eggs though, I haven't found any yet *shakes fist* The site looks really awesome!

It's just as well I found your blog here. But it's really not good practice to not have a way of contacting someone about the site!!

Colbert has a lot of international fans, you know! Don't you WANT to see pins on the map in other countries? How can I register when the account registration process calls for a zip code?

The only thing that bothers me, as a photographer, is that on the homepage his line of site leads you off the page. I can't stop looking over to the right for something. The site looks good.

Which makes sense, as it's an american site. but why not 'launch map of north america'? Highly amused that the ‘world map’ happens to be centred on america.
