• Support, and wanting everything with this to be hashed out quickly, so that he can go and take his picture. --aperfectring 16:38, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
• Support, I'll make it to another hash sooner or later. You might want to post sample pics so people know what orientation to hold their hands in. -- Phyzome 16:50, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
• yes, sample pics will be posted (to be taken at tomorrow's hash, probably). *goes to write FOO and BAR on his hands* --dawidi 16:54, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
• Support, I would love to have something to photograph besides my iphone and the backyard the hashes always fall in here. --LuxMundi 16:55, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
• Support, nice idea. This will need a lot of expeditions. according to wikipedia, 144 of them. Koepfel _talk 17:01, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

• support - I like the concept, I see it as a mix between a distributed art project and a viral marketing effort... --Crox 12:48, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

Discussion on how to go about this: The words "Around the world" are said dozens of times in this video. They tend to come in groups. I suggest that we try to do something a little bit different with each set. Different hand orientations for different sets of the words maybe? Maybe using arms for some of the sets?

At the end, perhaps we could have a zoom out on google earth or something which shows markers at all visited hashpoints?

Various ideas for the "around the world parts":

• write "around the world" on a pole/tree. circle with camera (video or several snapshots)
• write "around the world" on the wheels of your transportation device, program it on your spokelights.
