Blog - MapMyGlobe

Just registered MapMyGlobe CMS (the software that runs www.mapmyglobe.com) on SourceForge.net. I haven’t released an up-to-date version of the source code yet, though I’ll do it pretty soon. The project’s UNIX name is mapmyglobe, and the project’s page can be found at http://sourceforge.net/projects/mapmyglobe/. Please contribute!

Registering an Open-source project on SourceForge gives you Shell access to a Web and CVS/SVN server, so, out of curiosity, I used it to list the projects whose names start with map. There are 128 of them (out of 171,554 total), the complete list being:

map, map2owl, map2xml, map3bspc, map4use, map500conv, mapaaudio, mapache,
mapache-weblog, mapalyzer, mapaphoto, mapassembler, mapasuta, mapatorium,
mapbased, mapbender, map-blog, mapbox, mapbrowser, mapbuddy, mapbuilder,
mapcal, map-catalog, mapchan, map-connector, mapcraft, mapcreator,
mapdataviewer, mapdb, mapdload, mapdown-bf, mapdrive, mapdrv, mapeasy,
mapeaudio, mapeb200, mapedit, mapeditor, mapeggeographic, mapfs, map-fu,
mapgen, mapgrabber, mapi, mapi2pop3, mapiator, mapifier, mapify, mapip, mapipoz,
mapis, mapivi, mapix, mapkenzie, maple, maple3-itoc, maplens, mapleos, mapletree,
map-lib, maplincad, maplinx, maplist, mapmagick, mapmakerexpress, mapmanager,

mapper4j, mapperframework, mapphotogallery, mappingapi, mappingwidgets, mappit,
mapplet3d, mapplus-thin, mappo, map-pocket, mappoint4j, mapp-w, mappy,

map-x, mapxor, mapyrus

Among them, some are empty, some are pretty basic or pretty old pieces of code, and some are very interesting. One of the latter is map-blog, a “Php dynamic web site with Maps Google Api to provide localisation. It is a blog, with your travel itinerary on a map. Each plot contains date, text, video, and picture. User navigates on the blog by clicking the plot on the map.“. It still seems pretty rough at the edges, but still, it’s nice to see that what we are working on here at MapMyGlobe could be of interest to some
