GPS Blogging: the new fancy hobby: blog your GPS position on your trips!

You are on a trip and you want to make a log for yourself but you also want
to draw a map with the route. Hmmm, you want to inform the home front too
where you are and what you do.

Seewww.gpsblog.info how you can track your trip in real-time and in the
meantime write a GPS blog. Free, no extra chanrge, no spam. You need a GPS
or TomTom and a mobile phone, or a PDA with built-in GPS.

This is how it goes: you send a message to the POI66 server and you're on
the map. The PDA version is ever easier. Click the button. With roaming GPRS
it will cost you less than 1 kilobyte which is 1 $/EUR cent.

The result is your position on a Google Map on your own homepage! Check it
out how!
