Steemit Worldmap: new features update!

in travel •  7 years ago  (edited)

Before I start off this post, I wish to express my thanks to everyone who has been helping out with testing Steemit Worldmap! Because of you, we were able to:

  • Find and fix bugs
  • Gather ideas to improve the current existing features
  • See the map grow and indulge in all your amazing posts
  • Start working on the Steemit Worldmap you guys want


Post and author link:

Our newest feature! When you add a post to the Steemit Worldmap, you will now get two extra links in the auto-comment. You can share these links with others.

map


Upcoming features:

  • Tags: add tags and make the map sortable on these tags (e.g.: travel, photography, etc.)
  • Data sort: make map sortable on a specific data-range
  • Editors choice: shows a map with content that @blueorgy and @martibis deem exceptional
  • Error comment: if user inputs wrong information, post a comment with what went wrong
  • Flag: add a flag feature in case you notice a post has wrong coordinates, wrong tags, etc. on the map.
  • Video: make a video tutorial on how to use Steemit Worldmap.

Upcoming post promotion:

Once Steemit Worldmap is more widely used we will put 3 posts in the spotlight every day. This way these posts and their creators get some exposure and people following us are guaranteed interesting reads! These posts will be added to the Editors Choice map as well. In order to make chance to be selected you will have to meet the following requirements:

  • Your post needs to be on the Steemit Worldmap
  • Your post needs to have the travel tag (we want to focus on one subject)
  • Your post can not be more than 4 days old.

Thinking about following @steemitworldmap?

  • High quality travel content and the possibility to discover the creators behind this content (once a day)
  • Occasional Steemit Worldmap update, giving some insight on what we're working on behind the scenes (+- once a week)

I really love this feature and added this to all my post from my Travel with Detlev series

Thanks for the kind words, I've been coding a fair bit on it today, some cool stuff coming soon!

If wanted i can make the tut video for Steemit Worldmap...
nice post
thanks

Hey, thanks a lot for offering! Do you have any previous experience with tutorial videos? If so, would you mind sharing some with me?

https://dtube.video/#!/v/videogeek/9jhfvw5s made this one quite simple

i m videographer and i would love to help steem grow and world map grow and im uploading a new tut for premiere on my portuguese site videogeek.pt

Thanks for the video, I might add it to the next update post! It's possible I'll do one myself with a voice-over as well though! Either way, awesome to have one out for now!

I love it.. just find out this possibility... will try to add one right away

Glad to hear you like it! I've seen you managed to add several to the map! Happy to see you're having a good time with the Steemit Worldmap, haha!

Nice update summery! Keep it up...

Great report, greetings @steemitworldmap

Thank you, more coming soon!

Cool new features - now I can use this to keep track of my own travels! And love how you'll be using the map as for curation as well. :) Keep up the great work.

Thanks for all the kind words!
I'll definitely try to keep it up, haha!

I tried using the steemitworldmap here: https://steemit.com/travel/@cyncarlton/arbuckle-wilderness-park

I think I have something wrong. It's not displaying anything.

Hey hey, as far as I can tell on first glance it seems you didn't do anything wrong!

Possibly it is the server that was down for a bit, just editing your post (adding a space or something), should fix it! If it's still not fixed after that, let me know!

Tried that. No luck.

That's very odd, I'll research the issue some more, will keep you posted!

Thanks :)

feature request: ( In your free time )...... Is there any way to pull the exif data out of a photo automaticly

It's something we're looking into, but it's for a future version of the map! Probably not due for a few months though!
