Weeplaces Visualizes Your Checkins, Paths on OSM
As an example check out Ryan Sarver’s map (he’s the Twitter api/dev guy). Anyone using Foursquare can visualize their movements either publicly or just for themselves at Weeplaces. The background data is OSM and there’s a timeline underlying the map. If your friends share their maps you can overlay them with yours. You can also add comments to other people’s public maps. Oh, and it’s not a slippy map, as Steve Coast noted on TWIM. He used the term “inertial scrolling” but I think that means “slippy map.”
It’s about two weeks old and was built in a weekend by the Movity team.
