How cool would it be to have this?
Cool geek stuff for nomads' nomadlife (Part I)
Mappr is an interactive environment for exploring place, based on the photos people take.
-> It puts the photos of a Flickr members on a map ... currently only for the US but it seems this is a customisable software so might be adaptable to the global nomad's community?

Cool geek stuff for nomads' nomadlife (Part II)
Flickr Graph is an application that explores the social relationships inside flickr.com.
-> It would be great to see how the members of the constantly growing nomadlife community are linked to each other ... and how cool would it be if we could even manifest social connections with pictures (like "Wah, you know that freak as well?"; "Uh eh, so you've been at the same conference?"; "Hey, I've been to the same bar in the Congolese jungle!")
More about it here: http://www.marumushi.com/apps/flickrgraph/
Now, I am not a tech guy ... not at all. I am happy if my computer loves me and doesn't fool me. But I know that there are people reading this site who love to play with code ... so, would that be a nice spring project for you? Eternal nomad-love is waiting for you! ;)
All the above-mentioned toys seem to be based on Flickr's public software/code ... have a look here: http://www.flickr.com/services/api/

We used to do something like this in Australia, except it was gossip maps, and it was about who had kissed who at what party.
Scary. Global AIESEC Gossip Maps. *Shudder* ;-)

Yeah, they are pretty interesting to have but there are certain things that only makes sense when we reach a certain size.
And there's the catch 22 situation where you need to build infrastructure to attract more people and the infrastructure need more people to be useful.

so what we will do is to keep adding the infrastructure and integrating it with the rest of the community and see where we at at that point.
