Geo Recipe

April 11th, 2007

Take some good internet ingredients like:

  • Magpie RSS Parser
  • YouTube RSS Feed
  • GoogleMaps API
  • Geonames RSS to GeoRSS

and cook them with the right community passion and you may get a real bomb dish! ;-)

I wanted to make a proof of concept that we can build a new service starting from popular ones, so popular that now they are a classic, like YouTube: i’ve created Video by Location. A place where you can find videos on a GoogleMaps map.

The project is still in a beta phase, as you can’t add feeds nor submit your videos, but the community serves as a filter for locations that the Geonames.net service is not able to get right (mostly because they are not on Earth! :-P ).

Please go there from time to time, to report bad placed videos and to find some curious ones, or just to see what’s happening to this project!
