Want to Memorialize Where In the World You Have Visited? Try this Map

My friend (Paul D Pruitt socrtwo@s2services.com) ‘s world map program http://tinyurl.com/37yct2c is now in Beta. Everything works but he is looking for problems or suggestions. Personally I think this is going to be a big hit. The Map is working fine. It would be possible to make it even more useful by adding more interesting features to it.

Here are the current features:

  • Click on countries or their checkboxes lower down, to color them and indicate you have visited them (or for any other reason you want to color countries).
  • You can save the image of your map with a click of a button.
  • You can click on a button and get a tinyurl.com version which you can come back to at a later time and add countries to your map.
  • You can blow up the map to a PDF poster of any arbitrary size and still print it out on ordinary size paper which you tape together after trimming off the the overlap on the edges of each sheet.

Still to do:

  • Add maps of the US, Canada, China, Europe, Africa, South America, the islands of the world and Asia where users can indicate which provinces within each they have visited.

You must pay a visit and give it a try every time you visit a new place on earth. Where in the world you have been? Start coloring the places now. Thumbs up to Paul for this wonderful idea.
