Hey wfzimmerman, this is a new community that is just starting to develop, so don't get scared away because of the low activity. The point is to easily discuss regional issues, politics, or just tourism and cultural stuff. You can post a message to a country or region, and when people zoom in on that area they see your message, and you may get responses from people in that country. If you want you can also zoom in on where you live to answer questions about your country.
