Portland, Oregon as #25???? I wonder how Cornell did their research, how much paid by the travel dept. of each city? There are many great places around Portland, but not Pioneer Square. Although, if you are looking for the weird, come to Portland because they are working every day to "Keep Portland Weird."

I would guess they analyzed the pictures "posted" to flicker by the people who have accounts there. I would dare to say that their list is not the true places that many people take pictures of and post other places such as their home computers/external hard drives and never show up on the net. Maybe the should look at Facebook and all the pictures that are posted there and I would guess that would make a different list of the top 25.
