Twitter Google Maps Mashup

Twitter Google Maps Mashup

By Akshay Java on Thursday, March 8th, 2007 at 1:00 pm.

Lately, we have been bitten by twitter bug. Well, I just had an obvious thought and somebody would have come up with it eventually. So incase no one has - here is my Twitter Google Maps mashup. It updates every minute and maps anybody in the public timeline who have set their location. It is interesting to see how Twitter has become a global phenomenon.

Njoy.

    This is fantastic; are you considering showing off the backend of what you’ve done to let people customize it? I bet my organization would love to use it as part of Global Youth Service Day to get updates from around the globe on what’s going on related to GYSD!

    Hi

    Great idea!

    I want to build a map that would allow one users’ twitter posts to be pinned on a map. Not multiple users.

    The person would be travelling down one country and post a tweet in different locations. Possible you think?
