@absGeekNZ Not quite centred. If it were, Malaga, Spain, which is the antipode of Auckland, would be on the edge of the map.
- You're correct. Technically, the centre is closer to Melbourne than anywhere in New Zealand. And gods know we don't need to give Melbournians more of a sense that their city is the centre of the world.
I like this map.

I have a theory that if Antarctica were presented as a continent more often instead of some disjointed jagged bits at the edge, people would pay more attention to it and its issues.
- I'm not sure we want that much attention, just at the moment
  
  How so?

Its interesting, that you can see the split in Africa from space (Africa is breaking apart and forming a new continent).
