Hey guys!

 This is a quick invitation to discover the new world dive site atlas:
Wannadive.net!        http://www.wannadive.net

 Following the success of Wannasurf.com [1], the (internet's biggest
world surfing guide),  Wanndive.net [2] has been recently opened to the
Internet dive community. Wannadive.net is a collaborative website made
by divers for divers. Anyone can contribute to Wannadive.net by:
  - adding their favourite dive sites,
  - posting pictures and/or
  - adding dive site maps,
  - adding comments,
  - setting GPS locations...

 As Wannadive.net is a collaborative website, any diver can download
GPS waypoint files and load them into their own GPS. Wannadive can be
used as a reference GPS database for dive sites!
 If you like satellite maps, also try the new free application from
the NASA, World Wind [3] or Google Maps [4]. You can direcly plot a
Wannadive.net dive site into these applications!

 Get Involved and help build this resource; by divers for divers.

 Don't hesitate to contribute Wannadive.net by adding your favourite
dive sites!

 The Wannadive.net team.

How strange. It appears that Scotland and Wales are not part of the
UK.

I am pleased to see that you'll shortly be showing appropriate
advertising. If I contribute the content that would attract your
advertisers, then what's my cut?

I clicked on Greece and got a message saying "this country is not activated
yet"
Now, I know these southern Med types are pretty laid back, but really!

In fact Scotland and Wales are part of the UK in the site structure, but
labels still remains in this old map.
We do not plan huge advertising caampaigns, simply Google adds to pay a
part of the server costs. Benefits? More audiance, more content, better
coverage... And for you more complete PDF guides. Have a look on
Wannasurf.com
Best regards
