Imagine... Show yourself on the map for your familiy while traveling!
Imagine... You planned to do a long distant trip and each day you just want
to tell where your are. Sometimes you have a guestbook to read, r you upload some camera snapshots to the website. Does it mean that you are an IT expert? No. Take a look at http://www.poi66.com. There you can see how to show your family and friends where you are on the map , just by sending an SMS text message (no extra cost). Your position has a 4 meter precision. The city and country you're in are automatically shown. You just need a GPS receiver. Your family can zoom in and out and view the country from the air. The trick is that you just punch in the coordinates of the GPS in your text message. Sometimes it's possible to udo that using a PDA, fully automated. Press send... and after 3 seconds everyone sees you on the Google map and in Google Earth It is also possible by using the Internet without telephone or SMS. Examples: Watch 4 boys who drive across Africa in an old ford and fiat. They take part in a race to Dakar: http://dakar2007.poi66.com A couple campers Africa: http://hoppen.poi66.com On the bike in South America: http://zuidamerika.poi66.com A 14yo boy who crossed the Atlantic: http://transatlantic.poi66.com If you want this too (for free, no spam or other mess), then take a look at www.poi66.com how you can register. Happy journey! |
