Looking forward to this Wednesday's meetup.?
At the Feb GeoDjango meetup, a number of people had asked us if we could open up some of the geo infrastructure we were building to outside developers, so we launched a GeoAPI middle of last week.?Gist of it is that it makes it easier for developers to write location focused apps (e.g. location annotation apps, foursquare/brightkite/gowalla-style location broadcast apps, business listing or POI focused apps, etc.).
You can check it out here:?http://api.townme.com
Demos doing location check-ins, twitter neighborhood annotations and a few neat tricks here (these took a few hours each to write with the new API):?http://code.google.com/p/geo-api/wiki/Demos
If people are interested, we could give a 10-minute overview during an upcoming meetup.?In the mean time, please let us know what you think!
Othman
