so, there i was with a captive audience (my local lug mailing list),
who were expecting to be e-mailed a google maps link for the location
of a meetup next week. no, i thought, i'll send them an osm link -
auckland's looking pretty good now, i should encourage people to use
that

so, i fired up ff3, went to openstreetmap.org and waited.....and
waited. and it stopped. hit refresh. nothing. tried again. still
nothing

no matter, i'll go to informationfreeway.org. i zoomed to the area,
right-clicked 'permalink' and pasted it in the e-mail. great.

except no, cos when everyone clicked the link, it went to
informationfreeway.org and waited....and waited... and stopped, with a
white screen, only showing the zoom and pan controls

http://www.informationfreeway.org/?lat=-36.87730854072706&lon=174.7505575972425&zoom=17&layers=B000F000F

great.

sorry for wingeing unconstructively, but i felt foolish, and this
makes us all look hopeless
