Full Version: Member's map
Years ago there was a map that showed member's locations. I think Howard started it up. Does it exist anymore?
Have not seen one in years.

Unfortunately, it died with Howard.
He was the only one with admin access and we were not able to retrieve the data.
And a few months later, the service he was using went out of business, so all that data was lost for good.
Anyone who has the ability to export the "From:" fields from the member list can create an anonymous Google Maps with pins.
Of course, that requires accurate info -- e.g., "California" instead of "Kalifornia"

Do you have the URL? We might get the data from the wayback machine. From my work, I am becoming an expert in HTML screen scraping.

@ClayPerrine
It's been many, many years, the site was frappr.com but i don't remember the full url.
Knowing Howard, it probably had ClubNarp in it.
