Create online map with your actual position - www.poi66.com

[wesko]

You go abroad for a trip and, of course, you carry your GPS. On arrival on a campsite or stop you have a and you pull your mobile phone and GPS from your pocket. You type an SMS text message with your coordinates.

Why should you do this? Because once the SMS message arrives at the server, your personal home page is updated with a Google Map, indicating your actual position. You can add a picture to it, right from your digital camera. The home fromt sees the little dots on the map, thus creating your trip track log. Others can sign your guestbook so you keep contact. You can create a trip log yourself, on the campsite computer or by a quick message in your tent or hotel.

Once your back home, you add some more pics and others can see your beautiful trip log. They can download the trail to their Tomtom, GPS or whatever device it is, to do the same trail. You can fly over the globe using the Google Earth link, showing your trip with all the pictures. Set it to 3D and you fly back to that place where you had such fun.
