What is the general consensus of having an area in the forum or TMJ that, if people wish, can put their live position information for others to view? This would be aside from Friends users.

Would people have a problem with this?

Just a general discussion to see how people feel.

Hi,

This is something I could add in the future - I set up the Settings/Permissions page with this in mind (there is currently a 'Public' option which would control this, although at the moment it doesn't actually do anything!!).

The idea would be that if you make a folder public, then tracks you put into that folder would go into a common pool which could be viewable by anyone. Likewise for your Live locations...

I don't see that people should have a problem with this - it would be entirely up to them whether they choose to show their location or not. Anyone else have any thoughts...?

Hi,

I don't think anyone can object to this, as long as it is an "opt in" mechanism.

Mark.

I noticed the Public option too, and was curious on how to access it. I am all for public access.
