HITCHMAP ACCOUNTS ARE BACK.
Be quick to claim your account name if you have used the map already when it was on Hitchwiki or if you have submitted reviews using a nickname in the past.
This will also enable you to see reviews of yourself or any other user like so https://hitchmap.com/?user=bob#filters
As Hitchmap remains part of the Hitchwiki ecosystem you can also link your Hitchwiki account :)

Quite a nice milestone for https://hitchmap.com/ you can now add the exact time of your ride to new spot entries and we got more in the pipeline - if you wanna speed things up you can have a look at https://github.com/bopjesvla/hitch This will benefit every hitchhiker using the map getting more precise information as well as hitchhiking research more broadly.
