| Curiosity didn't kill the cat | May 15, 2008 |
I have always been curious to know where the majority of ProZ members is located.
I can see that Europe is leader by now, but it's still early morning (8-10 AM) in the Americas, and late evening in Asia, so this will probably change the balance later.

| How about the Caribbean | May 15, 2008 |
I answered "Other", because I am neither in North America nor in South America, but in the Caribbean. I wonder what Central American would say too.

I think this may have to do with the time of the day. I suspect it will change a bit within the next few hours.
(PS: Just realised iTranslate made the same point above)

| Amazing too... | May 15, 2008 |
It's amazing, how we, guys, are able to share our clients in Europe with legions of translators! Luckily enough, we can go global.

| Sorry, Africa | May 15, 2008 |
Up until 3 months ago I would have helped to bump up the Africa percentage but since I left South Africa and am currently (temporarily) in Germany, I'm adding to the Europe percentage.

Yeah, probably using "The Americas" would have covered the continent as a whole and competition would have been thrilling across time zones!

| And here is the first representative to this poll from Asia with some assumptions | May 15, 2008 |
The current statistics which I can see now is: while there are around 70% voters voted for Europe, there are less than 6% voters who are from Asia continent.
I cannot resist myself deducting following assumptions out of it:
1. Either, the number of translators/agencies enrolled on Proz.com from Asia region is much much less in number than those from Europe,
2. Or, Asian translators/agencies are very less interested and, therefore, do not participate on Proz's Pol... See more The current statistics which I can see now is: while there are around 70% voters voted for Europe, there are less than 6% voters who are from Asia continent.

3. Or, both the above.
Nice poll!

| Central America | May 15, 2008 |
I chose North Amercia, just because of what is taught in geography, but Costa Rica is in Central America. Missed my region!!!

Apparently there is still a lot of room for growth in for instance North America for Proz!
