• Great idea! It'd be cool if it could be used not only for purely "map" sites, but somehow exploit geotagged content as well. Of course, perhaps the map sites should do that exploitation on their own.
  
  
  
  Anyway, I look forward to your developments.

• Congratulations. Great tool.
  

• Additional question: which of the Javascript calculators that you use converts lat and lon to the x and y variables used in Streetmaps? Which is the logic behind x and y there, do you know? Thanks in advance.
  
  
  
  

• Ben,
  
  
  
  I had a go at adding map24. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find the current lon/lat of a map24 map. The fact that it's based on a Java applet makes it tricky!
  
  
  
  Do you know what a link to a map24 location would look like? If you could give me a link that used lon/lat we could at least have partial (one way) support.
  
  

• Gustavo,
  
  
  
  I've looked into supporting the ViaMichelin. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any way to get the current longitude/latitude from their maps or link to them using longitude/latitude. There are a few map sites that seem to make this deliberately difficult (ie Mapquest).
  
  

• Plain living and high thinking.
