Feel free to view source. It's basically 250 lines of jacascript, css and html mixed together in two days. Plus a super simple socket.io server

Hi, sorry for re-posting and thanks for your feedback! Have been iterating so many times over this project that it feels like something completely different every time. I'll let this be the last time I post it to HN, though! :)

The intention is really not to make people cyberstalkers with the project, but to let people experience cool things with it. I think it's kind of fascinating to stand near a statue or similar and see what others posted there through my mobile. The GUI part are for sure to be improved, and if you use the radius slider at the bottom of the page, it's possible to zoom while you set the radius. This part is probhably not very easy to understand for all people though, I guess. To be improved, for sure, thanks for pointing this out.

The plan is now to see what other APIs and services that could be useful to put in, and perhaps make some interactive stuff in order to be able to communicate somehow through the site. Still looking for a way to solve this in an optimal way, though, but I believe it could be really cool to offer something more than just browsing APIs visually.

Awesome!

NB: We posted a link to this project some months ago, which at that stage required a signup. Resubmitting since we have now opened up most of the application to everybody, except the create-account-in-order-to-contribute and-get-notifications-on-things part. There´s also quite a few improvements done to the design and general GUI. We hope people like the changes/modifications we´ve done!
