I like this... Not quite sure where MemeStreams is though.

Assuming the map wraps around at the edges like it should, I'd say we're a little dot on the far right hand side almost touching the edge, due East of del.icio.us, in the Sea Of Memes. The Blogipeligo lies to the southeast, offering fertile seas for fishing and trawling. The forgotten, undersea lands of Usenet, offered back to us by the powerful wizard Google, as well as proximity to the the IRC Isles and the sprawling confederacy of Wikipedia provide resources and expertise, though the confusing winds and maze-like interconnected channels can often result in many days lost at sea, drifting from isle to isle in search of an exit.

Some of us (cough*acidus*cough) have been known to conduct raids into the Straits of Web 2.0 while others have long since been lost, roaming the northern islands of WoW and EQ after becoming disoriented in the frigid and chartless wastes of the NOOB Sea.

We are a super secret hidden evil-genius-type lair at an undisclosed location within the Sea of Memes. It's kinda like that lair at the end of The Spy That Loved Me.
