Is Microsoft located in the US? That would explain it.

Guys

The coordinates can be used on the web site that Dana linked to in her new blog (www.indo.com).

Perhaps we are meant to use that somehow.

Right, i have looked at the coordinates and i think they are connected by not internet conection, Wifi, cameras etc.

These types of things are found everywhere, and yet they have given us a specific list.

I think that the locations represent memories. What if we are being told the coordinates that she believes things are at. We know she was a navigational AI so it would be very likely she'd have co-ordinates of these places already. it is also more likely were looking at landmarks than payphones as their unlikely to be still around in the same places in the future, compared with landmarks

Check this thread about halfway down the page (my post) -- its a possible solution: In-Forum Link

It was mentioned earlier that we should try getting the distance between coordinate pairs. Well, here's a list, sorted by distance (in KM). The original position in the list is in the first column. Perhaps it will prove useful - though I'm not so sure.

someone mentioned triangulation before. if they are all not pointing to a single place, you may find itt by way of triangulation.

also, someone mentioned the pairing of the coord's on the site. maybe there is something with the distance's between all those pairs? what would a plotted out map look like with a line drawn from point to point for each of the pairs?

edit : scrap this post. im always about 2 steps behind everone else. usually i search, but for some reason didn't this time.

Thank you for the map, xnbomb. And thank you for clearing up some misconceptions I had.

This thing is clearly a puzzle, looking up where a coordinate is, then visiting that place and looking if something is there and see if it has similarities to other places is NOT a way to solve a puzzle.

Doing that, you didn't have to think about a solution once, and btw as we have seen by the number of points that have already been visited, they have NOTHING in common.

This thing needs a different sollution, one which people all around the world can find...

I went to the coordinate 39.9657,-105.1845 in Colorado and found a small orange flag where the coordinate was. I don't think this means anything, but you never know. There was also a tower for power lines, but not much else. The spot is about 100-200 feet from a major highway that connects Boulder and Denver. I didn't use a GPS device, but I did print out a map to help me find the exact location. I had to drive up a single lane dirt road for most of the trip, so it is pretty remote location to get to. That is about all the information I have on that coordinate.
