VideoForums Map. Add yourself

Thought this was a neat idea. Dont think the locations are quite so detailed for the UK, but have a look and add yourself.

Make sure you add a "Shout-Out" to your entry, otherwise it doesn't log it.

Apologies too if it can't get your exact location, just get as close as you can. The locator sometimes takes a few seconds to autocomplete your town.

(It's true, I do have far too much time on my hands at the moment)

I added myself, but it's rejected me.

Why? (Did it reject you, not why it's a swine)

Do you live nowhere near one of the marked towns or something?

EDIT - I 've done it for you Mike. Cos I have THE POWER!!!!

(And you have to add a "Shoutout" before it adds you)

Now added.

But another example of there being the US and then "a few other places somewhere" isn't it? The US can enter a zip code and (presumably) lolcate their pin close to where they actually live. I notice Marc, having to put 'London' can;t get within 30 miles of his house.

Very true. Except I think Marc can get as close as Guildford or Maidstone. He just didn't try hard enough. tsk!

The satellite imagery is quite good though, even over Worksop and Retford. It's only at almost full zoom that I lose it.
