Just enter the new values. The old entry vanishes automatically.

Well, I guess living in Japan would be cool, as per the map, but errr.... I don't live anywhere NEAR there....

At least Melb Aus and Japan are... sorta close.... time zone wise...???

Pretty cool, Haken! Got my pin in the right place first try!

Doesn't play nice with Netscape, though. Had to bring up IE to see the map...

I'm using IE but I only get a black screen with a blue border. No Map. I tried to enter my co-ords. anyway. I hope it got added even though I can't see it. Any suggestions as to why?

My guess is: JavaScript is either off or doesn't work properly (the map makes heavy use of it).

Great idea!
Looks like we have a few penguin browncoats though.

Thanks very kindly.

Oops, I'm still not in Missouri, I don't think. Hmmmm, must do some more searching to get right coordinates.

I'll be back again.

An engaging novelty!

Close. Actual location is about 80 kilometres southwest of the noted point. Of course, I only entered to the .01 minute each way.

On a quasi-unrelated note, it seems I've made a FF fan out of my non-tv-watching brother. Does that seem right to you? Aargh, another boxed set to buy.... It's all Haken's fault!

Some additions to our little map.

- Map will now center on "you" when you first view the map. A helpful feature for those of us who are not in North America and are across the pond.

- Your coordinates and note will now display as default. Helpful when editing.

- Notes will now display in the popup info box. I'm limiting the length to 25 characters for now. I might increase it depending on how it'll affect performance. Also, avatar/image display is coming soon, but we'll see how much time I have this week on working on this.
