The knowledge great circle



Something struck me a few days ago. When I look at the people who read this blog (as a resonable representation of KM folks round the world), the locations where they live lie pretty closely on a great circle.

Look at the map on the lower right, where the last 100 visitors are plotted. Compare with the map on the upper right, where the great circle is plotted that passes through the US, northern europe, india, and australia. 99 of those last 100 blog visitors sit pretty close (in global terms) to that great circle.

Is this a coincidence? Or is there a sort of "great circle of KM" across the globe?

(the 100th visitor is in South Africa, which sort of busts the trend)
