We here in Finland live at EEST timezone aka UTC+3 (during summer/standard time). That means for most of the world we live in the future. There are fifteen timezones behind us. Sure, there are also eleven timezones ahead of us as well (yes, there is actually 26 timezones all the way up to UTC+14). So we are actually living quite close to the middle after all.
But the thing is the internet is mostly living in the US mainland timezones (from UTC-7 up to UTC-4). While practically we are living the same day things don't really start until after our day is already turning into evening. As most of the things happen in the afternoon it means for us it's already past midnight.
So instead of living in the future here we are pretty much day late for such matters. We might get to read those things first thing in the morning. But at that point they are already yesterday's news.
