Hoipolloi's international touring map (calculated in smoots)

I admitted in a previous entry that I’m in the thrall of Google Analytics. Now Simon and I have found a new Google toy. This is a map showing all our recent international tour destinations, and where we’re going next.

It’s got all kinds of amazing features with which to wile away a Friday afternoon. I’ve discovered that Hugh Hughes’ journey from the Hoipolloi office to Singapore, and then around Australia will total 18470.1km: that’s 9973.04 nautical miles or the length of 369402 Olympic swimming pools.

Meanwhile, a USA tour of Story of a Rabbit, which we’re currently planning, could be as long as 377478 Ramsden’s chains or 6.76000e+6 smoots. (Click to find out what either of those things are. The story behind smoots is very entertaining!)

If you haven’t done so already, please have a quick look at my last blog entry about the WhatsOnStage Theatregoers’ Choice Awards. If you could spare two minutes to give us your vote, we’d be really grateful.

Have a great weekend!
