Grapevine map?

[HeyWayne]

Just a thought.

Is there any way that a "members map" could be created on the vine? Something like googlemaps, where other grapes could add their location/pin...

My post code is LE11 1JL If you look north west there is a U shape of houses with a green bit in the middle that is our allotment site.Between Meadow Ave & (N)orth Road

I was thinking something like this (hope it works...)

Grape Map

You should be able to plug your postcode in and find your plot/garden/field and stick a pin in it.

Edit: I know I've mentioned the map thing before, but that was individual maps - I think this way it should allow the creation of a collective map so we can see at a glance where everyone is.

wont let me put a pin in it, maybe just me being a bit blonde though

[shirlthegirl43]

Can't get the pin to stick where our house is.

[HeyWayne]

How about now?

[lainey lou]

Sounds like a great idea, a members map would be brilliant!

Can't get it to work for me, do I need to register?

I think so. I'll do a bit of investigative work, see if I can find something comparable which explains/shows what I'm talking about.

On another forum I'm on they use Frappr but I couldn't put a pin on that either because you need broadband and my uplink was too slow... it would be really great to be able to see where we garden/who's our neighbour sort of thing though.

i have got it to work, you need to sign in, then hit collaborate which will let you edit the map.

Yeah, I changed the settings so that "anyone" could amend that map, but I think you do need a google/map account to do that. I was hoping for something a little easier to access. Still looking.

Looked at the frappr thing BW, but couldn't get the code to work on my blogger page for some reason.

Oh I love techie stuff.

Where's Ben when you need him?

I'm on OH's laptop at mo which for some reason doesn't accept my google account password. I'll go on the PC later and put a couple of pins in the map.

Another great idea Heywayne

Just been on the big pooter and got my pin in now.
