Zoomap is Googlemaps + a Wiki. Yet another project based on the infamous Google API. But this one is fun to use.

In plain English: you can pinpoint any spot in the world and upload your picture and add some text to the database creating an image tagged location. Once your tag is created Zoomap provides a direct link to it for you to enjoy.

A good and fun use of the Google Api and probably of the Wordpress blogging platform. The closest project I’ve seen to Zoomap is Wikimaps, a plugin for Wordpress that turns your blog into an open wiki based on google maps. Not sure if Zoomap is not using Wikimaps.

Update: Via Dani Julià one of Zoomap creators: The system is programmed from scratch. No Wordpress and no wikimaps underneath.
