> Those guys both built their own little lands

Do you mean they created their own fictional geographic worlds (or parts of worlds)? That's amazing. Many - including Tolkien, I think - have started that way. Sometimes, the world finds out about it. Robert Louis Stevenson started with a map.

Hah, I should have been more specific. They created programming environments that are entirely their own. Although Jon has created several games which include fictional geographic worlds.

Still, it seems like the same thing to me, just in a different medium. Though the public has a much easier time understanding maps than programming environments.
