The Unicyclist Community GoogleMAP!

[Gilby]

I have added a map to the site so you can mark your location on the map (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/VBGooglemap.php) and see where other unicyclists are located. This service uses Google's Map API and you can put a pin anywhere in the world with this, though many countries do not have detailed road information.

It's still in development and I hope to add your avatar and a link to your profile on the dialog box that is shown when clicking on a user's marking point. If you have any others ideas to make this better, please let me know.

It's just an idea.

Why did you never make it without Google?
Some longer ago here (http://unicyclist.com/forums/showpost.php?p=232098&postcount=4) and here (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showpost.php?p=343436&postcount=7) I posted to this (pretty much working and zoomable) example (http://www.unicyclist.org/), that with a simple database like this php script (but especially it's sql table of us-zip/long/lat data) (http://www.sanisoft.com/ziploc/) + regular long/lat input by user could do the job. Including avatars will be a piece of cake.

Sorry leo, I must not have seen your original posts about this.

I agree, this is wonderful!

My suggestion would be for everybody to also include their estimate of the number of active unicyclists in their area -gilby, could you include a field for this in the label so that people know what the number represents? I would say there could be as many as 100 active riders in quebec city.

I like this idea. All the unicyclists you know who don't post here. I would say I know about 7.
