Where on Earth are you?

Postby EURO_Snoopy on Tue Jul 04, 2006 6:43 pm

I have found another new toy. You have probably seen or heard of Google Earth, well we now have it on M4T
With this version members can place a pin on their location so we all know where you come from.

Features:
- Map can be navigated via mouse (dragging/clicking) or keyboard (arrow keys to move and +/- keys to zoom).
- Entering your location is as easy as clickin gon the map and hitting "OK" if you want to use it as your location.
- Location updates are accomplished in the same manner as entering your initial location.
- Instant zoom to your location.
- Manual entry of member's location in either degrees minutes seconds or decimal degrees.
- You can enter in a location string that will link to your location in google maps. This can be used to do directions to and/or from your location. This link will also be seen in all of your forum posts as it is entered into your profile's location field.
- Provides error notifications if browser is unsupported by Google Maps or javascript is disabled.
- Allows download of Google Earth KML files to show a members information in Google Earth.

Very cool addition to M4T, Snoop. Thanks.

Now if this means folks will start dropping wine bottles down my chimney, even better. Just make it a 6-pack and since the chimneys were removed 50 years ago you can leave it on the front seat of the truck. :drinkers:
