Hey Steemers!
I'm proud to announce a big update for http://steemspot.com - Steemspot was started as a community tool to let steemit users represent our community visually on a world map. It's purpose was set out to help discover steemers around you and also as a tool to follow your favorite steemers who frequently travel the world.
So far we've seen some great updates around the world!

No Registration Required!
Registering on SteemSpot is no longer required. You can now easily add new spots by clicking "add spot" and follow the popup modal. *html5 geolocation is still required for easily finding your spot.Instructions to add a spot:
- Click add new spot
- Enter your steem username
- Hit "geolocate" me
- Make sure to accept your browser asking for permissions if you haven't already allowed it
Improved Marker Cluster Support!
An additional improvement in this release is improved marker clustering functionality. Utilizing additional JS library's locations with identical coordinates(lat,long) will now spider out accordingly. There can be thousands of steemers in the same location and visually this will spider displaying all markers.
Multi Spot Functionality
Steemspot early alpha only allowed for you to have one spot instance. After many requesets steemspot now allows for infinite steemspots for any user! Mark steemspots wherever you travel and visit!
Added Privacy
By default spots are recorded to the spot city. Spots do have the ability the mark to your exact address. This is great for landmarks and spots you'd like to share on your journeys.
What are you waiting for? Come help us build the steemit world map together!

@xpilar When you click "add spot" you'll see the confirmation asking for your steem username. When you hit the "geo-locate" button you'll see a popup in the top left like this (image below). After you approve it will find the location! Let me know if you have any issues.

it looks like this problem is being caused by the site not running https here is the console error getCurrentPosition() and watchPosition() are deprecated on insecure origins. To use this feature, you should consider switching your application to a secure origin, such as HTTPS. See https://goo.gl/rStTGz for more details.
