Putting together google maps for data sheets
Guys, data sheet suggestion. Lets google map the venues that are listed on data sheets. Google maps can be created and edited publically so we can all collaborate on them. Cool?

Here is one that was done for the Brickell, Miami datasheet :

RE: Putting together google maps for data sheets
Excellent idea. Did you make that one?

I made a restaurant guide for Chicago (according to Zagat ratings) very recently and wouldn't mind implementing one for a Chicago datasheet. 1 suggestion is to change the symbols/colors according to the type of club, and perhaps list the name of the venue next to the symbol (there's an option in the 2nd tab)

Cheers

Great job! You probably already have that in mind, but it would be nice to have (if it's possible) a global map of data sheets, with a link to each data sheet (or its center) for each city or country.

This has already been discussed on two other threads as well.

Just recently learned about this and will be putting it to use in future data sheets.

RE: Putting together google maps for data sheets
This would definitely be great.

Till now I use Foursquare which is IMO a good and helpful tool (here bars in Zaporizhia).

Ok here is the google map for Chicago

https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msa=0&ms...cab0f23332

Also if you say click on "Castle" and then zoom right in you can clearly seem marked on the map other bars nearby like Vertigo Sky Lounge for example and then click on it and get more info. Useful if you dont have a car and can't deal with how spread out all these venues are.

Although I would highlight the whole town. For the right person, Pereira is like shooting fish in an empty barrel with a 12 gauge. Too bad the city is actually very ugly, but you don't fuck the city, you fuck the girls.

Volk, maybe I should have made myself clearer.

These maps have been created for and can be edited by the community.

If you want to edit and flesh out the Pereira map, go ahead.

Same with all the other maps.
