Nice idea. However, staring on the emptiness of a map when you enter, is not such a good idea though. Suggestions: - use geolocation to get visitors id and show a map that is closer to his area. - if there are no ads in that

A great bunch of papers. I read some of the LaTeX related one's as I spent a good part of my youth trying to tame it! I'm pessimistic about software in general. When computers were the province of the technically sophisticated, people wrot
