Citadelian Map - Where are you?
« on: August 11, 2004, 05:58:20 AM »
The original, quoted, still works. But we have moved on to bigger and better things. Post your google link if you want me to add it. I will eventually upgrade it to a form so it will be automatic, but a little too busy on V2.0 to mess with that at the moment. Very easy and quick for me to manually update so will do it that way for now.

---

Just when you thought it was safe.

http://www.strolen.com/maps/map2.php

Of course Google has an API that allows you to import their maps and make your own overlays!!! And of course there are a multitude of people that make those API's even easier to use. So of course, when I stumbled upon it quite on accident, I had to throw it up really quick.

This is the script I am using and it is a VERY simple interface. The most important instructions for me adding people is this:

Quote
To add a marker on your map, go to maps.google.com, double-click on the point you want to mark on your map and click on "Link to this page". Note: you must double-click or drag the map, not just search for an address. Now copy the resulting URL


and paste it here and I will add it. You can also add a few lines of text like I did. Once there are more people in it I will remove the auto opened bubble so that you have to click on it to see information.

(For those that dug down to see where I live, I put myself on Little Rock AFB which is about 8 miles from Cabot. That large building is really where I work though. Thought it was more interesting to look at then a freeway and a few buildings in downtown Cabot.)

Quote from: Old Crappy Map that is now obsolete
'Ware the popups, but a fun little toy none-the-less. Post yourself up there so we can figure out where everybody is from.

I am in the water too, no worries. There was a choice to add a flag when you put your person on the map. Do you want me to delete you so you can do it again?

It is okay strolen, I would not want you to be worried by such petty matters.
As long as my little man does not drown that is :D

Britain's getting a bit cramped - you'll need a magnification doo-daa to fit any more on.
I don't think I'm drowning...
I thought therefore I was, but then YOU started thinking and that really put me off.

If they had just zoomed into the picture before complaining about the fact that one stood on the place where the other wanted to be.....

By the way, I am not british... not living in Britain either.

Why would we visit?
Are you assuming that somebody would visit just because you put up the city where you live?

Are we meant to put Strolen under the link? Or any other site? If allowed I want to put Strolen there.

Whee, go me only one in Florida.  Of course that also means that I can't find anyone to play games with. :(

Dont feel too bad. I used to live in Maine, of couse I left and moved down the coast to warmer waters. Where I can dance in the rain all year round if the desire to do so takes me.

You know, we could take this to a near scary extreme.

http://earth.google.com/

Now, I don't suggest that people put in their exact home coordinates (because with those we can look up your mailing address and find your name), but their local landmark or civic center might not be a bad idea?

You can find me by looking at the google main campus and scrolling down to Sunnyvale or up to Stanford.
