Russia's absence is quite surprising. I would've thought more people visited from that part of the world. Maybe it's the language barrier

edit: great work on the map!

It's not especially the language barrier. But they have their own communities. I live in Belgium and my wife is Russian. For her western friends she uses Facebook, for her Russian Friends she uses the the known Russian clones.

The same applies for Russian Hackers.
