Guest guest Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 I want to create my own map of places to find food, in an online kind of map interface. And it occurred to me that there may already be maps or collaboration map projects already happenning. And if not, there may already be good online free mapping services available that would incorporate that and may also allow for the collaboritive construction mapped sites. It seems that Google maps is not allowing enough customization to name points, add descriptions, and web links to map points in thier " My Maps " feature. So looking for alternatives.

Guest guest Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 I think some of the more advanced GPS's show different types of restaurants such as vegetarian (I don't think vegan); however, I am always trying to map out restaurants in certain cities that we're traveling to. I think this is a very good idea. Jerri , " M " <asynaps wrote: > > I want to create my own map of places to find food, in an online kind of map interface.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 You may want to check out Happy Cow's website. When we take road trips (which is often) I check out their site for options along the way. The interactive map sounds like a great idea. , Linda and rickey Lilley <uponatimewhen wrote: > > In Farmville, VA. we have,Charley's Waterfront Cafe 201-B Mill St., Merk's Place 1306 N.Main St. Hope this Helps.
