Timeout … going deeper

Next a couple of weeks updates will be much slower (if any at all). I hope to be here: . Do you know anything about freediving? I recommend it! You will find more reasons to say “Thanks” to the Nature.

So find out nice place (somewhere out), make a locilink (on loci.me :), send it to your friends and go out. Maybe you will meet up there.

PS: I definitely need to come with better way how to publish a place (one part of the loci.me mission).

Places Will Be Yours

Finally … you can register and log-in. Than your places will be trully yours - remain editable by you and you will be the place owner (if you are not registered you can edit place until you loose the session - usually close browser).

identity_barThere is definitelly a lot of work to polish it and debug. And a new, full stream of ideas what to do. Please, write me your options, report bugs etc.

Get address when making place

When you make a new place to share, you can try to get address of the pin location on the map.

Improvements in maps

Place editing enhancements:

  • new place can be submitted by address, works within place editing, too
  • when you edit place, drag the pin to exact location you want to save
  • when you edit place, you can choose maptypes and zoom. This will be remembered and place will be displayed with this settings.

Still need to polish the home page and Make New Place page. No map helper here… (updated 7th April: now done).

View Place in Nokia Maps

I’ve added LMX format (huh?). When viewing place on phone browser, you can click on “lmx” link and if you have Nokia Maps on your phone, you can open place there.

formats-mobile

I know that use “lmx” as link is .. hmm… weird. I will rename it, really. Structure of these information has to be revised (because kml can be renamed as Google Earth, gpx as Garmin but to see the format names is sometimes important). Any idea?

Wishlist

Please, write as a comment what you like to see (or not see) on loci.me. Thanks.

PS: more about me, loci.me and contact is here.

Just for inspiration, what you can await, soon:

  • login and saving places under your account (done, April 11th)
  • “save to clipbox” for the loci-url
  • create new place from address (done)
  • clone this place (for anybody who want to make place based on existing one)

Hello Earth - Loci.me is out!

logo-koloLoci.me released (internal version 3.0).

Create place, get short link and share this link where you want. Read more why loci.me was born and why fits better than sending google links or shortened links from tinyurl.

Feedback more than welcome. A lot of plans in the pipelines…
