::::Nice work so far on liftershalte.info! Are you in contact with Markus at [http://www.hitchbase.com/ hitchbase.com] to share all submitted exit points from that website? [[:digi:|digihitch.com]] has also had the goal of listing all locations on the map. I began with [http://www.google.com/apis/maps/ Google Maps API] earlier this year and right now we use it to show truckstops in US States (see [[:digi:world/USA/Arizona|Arizona]], for example), hostels in cities (see [[:digi:world/Europe/Germany/Berlin/hostels|Berlin hostels]] page) general maps for cities that have mapped routes (such as the new [[:digi:world/Oceania/New-Zealand/Auckland|New Zealand]] maps). If we can get all of us hitchhiking webmasters working together, maybe we can release an xml version of our work to other websites that has multi-language, map-based hitchhiking exit points that can be plugged into others' maps. Just a thought that we can discuss on a different page at another time. I will follow your development in the meantime. [[User:Salman|Salman]] 08:30, 4 December 2006 (CET)
::::: The problem with hitchbase is, that it has no coordinates for the places, so this data would be useless for liftershalte.info. Exporting the data to xml would very easy. I planned to let the users export it to kml or some similar format. --[[User:MrTweek|MrTweek]] 11:47, 4 December 2006 (CET)
:Looking forward to contributing more in the months ahead. Good job so far!
