Bootleg Bon Vivant is looking for the world's best tobacco shops. Do you know where to get a rare blend? Know the location of the perfect cigar? Contribute to the map.
I recently signed up for the fon network when they were giving away free routers. Today a Fon community member set up a map of hot spots on his blog dedicated to the subject Have Fon. Seeing this map finally got me to actually set my Fonera up!
Ubikcan is a blog covering politics, mapping, history, philosophy, Massive Attack concerts, and whatever else Ubikcan feels like writing about. There's a Platial map on the blog with an equally gloriously open-ended raisond'etre: "Anyone can add markers or comments to this map. The idea is to share geographically referenced experiences. Say you go to a good restaurant, you can tag that. Or a comment thread may refer to some places."
The blog Fly Fishing in Yellowstone National Park is run by a local expert on the subject whose username on Platial is Yellowstoner. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the blog page to see the map he's working on.
Thanks for the link and exposure! Hopefully we'll have an awesome map of those spectacular smoke shops around the world soon.
