Opencaching.com mashup
Is this the first opencaching.com mashup?
(The map may take a little time to load.)
The map shows the latest 10 caches published on opencaching.com in the British Isles along with the nearest public photo on Flickr. (The “more info” link in the “balloon” takes you to the opencaching.com page. The link on the list below the map is to the Flickr photo.) To be honest the mashup is a little bit pointless but was fun to do. If someone with little imagination and even less programming skills can put this together think what someone who know what they’re doing could come up with?
What’s I think is a real shame is that geocaching.com doesn’t have a similar and easy to use api like opencaching.com. If a few talented programmers could get their hands on that data I think there could some amazing mashups produced. Looks like it may be on the way.
