Simple txt file is the best indeed. For easily creating a new file (from a template) everyday in VSCode, can recommend the vscode-journal extension.

Also, there's no mention at all of GA App+Web (launched August 2019) - which is clearly the future of Google Analytics and uses an event-based model.

information was scarce indeed, till this day i still feel a little sorry i was not born 10 years later. Since when i learned (gw-)basic from the 3 books our public library had to offer i was full of enthusiasm, but after that my development practically stalled due to lack of information. Until the internet came around, but that was 10 years later and i was already in my early 20s :|

Main unique selling points over maps.google.com & others:

1) click to view; no more pegman dragging and dropping

2) splitscreen view of map & streetview

A small bias towards more variety was introduced to prevent 80% of locations being in the US. Repeating locations are possible but should be increasingly rare.

I'll further tweak the randomization patterns for the better. And fix the address language indeed.

Thanks for the feedback!

Random street view locations are retrieved from a database (on-the-fly lookup is too slow); France had not so much records; that has changed over the last 5 minutes though. Try again :)
