Lets start!

After some test and working successfully through some examples we can show the first simple mapping app. You can add a marker where ever you want by double clicking on the map, enter a short description to the place and done. Its saved and can be read by other users clicking on the marker. Ok, it is not the big thing but it works and thats already a good start.

Used examples and sites that helped:

  • http://ejohn.org/blog/one-week-of-google-maps-1/ (many very good tweaks)
  • http://www.programmableweb.com/howto (how to make a Mashup)
  • http://www.econym.demon.co.uk/googlemaps/ (great examples)
  • http://mapki.com/ (alle you need you can find here)

    • Next steps:

  • page reload with AJAX
  • More possible input fields for: links, tags, images
  • if there are more then around 5 markers at one place show the latest and the others after a specific zoom stage… or smaller
  • and even more …
