Our mashup Geo Talk has been updated. It lets you create forums (discussions) linked to the particular place on the map. Cloud forums on the map.
Just mark a place, type a question (suggestion, information etc.) – in other words create an initiation for the discussion and get unique link for the map with embedded forum. After that you can share this link with your partners/colleges, print in your blog / twitter etc. – it depends on your own decision only – who you want to see among readers. And after that you can just follow to the discussion.
No registration required. Technically it is Google Maps + cloud forums from Disqus.
You can discuss some geo points, POI’s (points of interests – shops, bars etc.) or, for example, create a private forum devoted so some meeting in the selected place.
Any discussion could be copied right to your mobile phone as HTML5 mobile web application via QR-codes.
Just for example – forum for Golden Apple bar in Moscow
Initially mashup ( http://geotalk.linkstore.ru ) is trying to detect your location (as per W3C spec). If you know that forums should be created in some particular area just set additional parameters for the above-mentioned URL:
lat - a latitude
lng – a longitude
zml – an initial zoom level
E.g. create forums in London
P.S. check out also similar mashups: City forums and Mobile forum
