You probably remember the Jabber World Map by Ralph Meijer. The problem there was, crowded areas were difficult to decode.

World Of JabberDuring my morning tour of Websites and RSS feeds, I have found a post on Jabberforum.org by Sublime Porte about a new Jabber World Map. The post can be found here.

This Map is based on Google Maps, and uses your vCard profile feeds to get the location. He says that in future he wants to use the XEPs XEP-0080 and XEP-0154 for the user location. This might be a project to keep an close eye on ;)

To use it, simply add geolocator@jabbering.org to your Jabber Roster. A few minutes later, you’ll find yourself on the Map.

Update: I was just told, that it is based on SleekXMPP.
