Stephen,

just a suggestion: you've stored the home location of all users. What are you intending to do with it? On www.belgiumdigital.com (a photography forum) they're displaying all users on GE Maps, quite funny actually.

Regards,

Mark.

I had thought of something similar to this - be even cooler to do it with the 'live' data, be like a map crawling with ants!
However, I need to add an 'Opt in' clause on the account settings - I suspect that most people won't want to make their home/live information public.

(At the moment the home location is just used on the Live and Waypoints page to set the initial point that the map is centered on)

Cheers,
Stephen
