Entry text: [quote=36]@anonymous guest: Where is the "My Maps" feature on OSM? You know, I have been contributing substantial parts in my home town to OSM and other small things wherever I go (just spent about 1.5h yesterday with creating/improving some OSM data), but things like "places I was on in this holiday" or "important spots when doing Berlin sightseeing on my MAOW stay" are not common data to be stored with the real street data on OSM, it deserves something like Google has done with "My Maps". How can I get those on OSM? @larffy: It's not like my browser can read IMAP, the Facebook database or Google map databases right now, you know. It's websites that know how to talk to those and represent them in the browser. And if the services were networked, it still would be websites that pull things together to interact with them. Of course, it can be non-website applications as well if the data is networked the way I think it should be. Interestingly, I watched what [url="http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/tim_berners_lee_on_the_next_web.html"]Tim Berners-Lee said about "linked data"[/url] yesterday evening - after writing this blog entry ;-)[/quote]
