Hello and my name is technologics. This is my page.
I regularly make colonization trips to 10km away from the center of the map if I'm playing SMP and sometimes go farther if I can't find a suitable construction site. Once I made it to 100km and built a base there. I also hate maps with boundaries and will never play on them. Ever. I tend to build my bases/cities in 8*8 segments to form buildings and other things whose area are always be a factor of 64 (including exterior walls).
Lately (after the 1.8 update) I noticed that beyond 7-9km, there is much ocean with tiny to small islands, island chains and various other oddities leaving little room for mining and construction and bla.
Back in alpha, I ran two active but short-lived cities at different times in different servers. The second one even grabbed the attention of admins and they created a warp for the town center. They both start out active but the first died after two days of running due to greifing, and the other one died of various influences from hostile mobs wandering into the city to general lack of maintenance. Later attempts to start a city were unsuccessful. Now I just travel and build private bases, looking for a good opportunity to start another city.
