[OSM-talk] OSM in the today's Financial Times
Burn your Anarcho-syndicalist membership card. Sell Google. Buy OSM. Today's Financial Times European edition, page 11, carries a 3/4 page article "Way to go? Mapping looks to be the web's next big thing" with this paragraph. "At one end of the spectrum are people like Steve Coast, a British amateur who is hoping to create a communal map of the world as comprehensive as Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia. Volunteers who contribute to Mr Coast's OpenStreetMap.org literally redraw the map. "You buy a GPS unit and cycle around the roads," he says. "It drops a data point every second, like Hansel and Gretel dropping breadcrumbs." Collecting those data points and joining the dots is the first step in sketching a map of the road network." A little bit condescending still but it says what we do and has the website. It is nice to see journalists beginning to make a ritual inclusion of OSM every time they write about mapping. Good work Steve. Mike ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
