We are looking for a developer to create a Google Map gadget for us to feature in the gadget directory. Right now users of Blogger in Draft can geotag their posts. We'd like to offer them a gadget that maps their posts.
Ideally, clicking on each marker in the map would show the first image of the post (thumbnailed - you can get this in the feed as the "media RSS" image) along with the post title, snippet, and date.
Respond if you are interested.
Thanks! Siobhan -- Siobhan Quinn Product Manager, Blogger.com Google
I'm interested and have already written several Blogger based mapping
"gadgets". See http://svbillabong.blogspot.com for a dynamic geoblog
map example, interactive maps are also available through menu
selection at the top.
I'd be interested in discussing your requirements
BTW How would development/support costs be covered?

Hi.
I've started developing a gadget for this subject, and the basics are
almost finished!
Just there are a few more final steps need to be fixed;
- centering and zoooming into map to show added marker points.
- gadget (or browser) is caching the posts feed. so removed posts or
removed geotags still appears even after they are deleted from the
profile.
And what more extra features about UserPrefs?? Maybe some map display
options, like Terrain or Flat Map. Or custom Marker Icons maybe??
And yes, +1 "BTW How would development/support costs be covered?"??
Will developer able to have any profit from this gadget??

Hi.
I've noticed that Geo Tagging is re-enabled on blogger draft.
I've checked out my gadget and fixed some errors and stuff.
Please check it out again from the url address which i had sent it to
you via email on previous weeks. Or, i can resend it if you can not
find it.
Cheers.
