... which itself I had some mixed feelings about. But, I wonder what kind of services OpenGuides can offer by 2012. Should we make OGL multilingual? Should we increase our sporting content? Should we get sponsored/go commercial? Ideas... Thoughts... Ivor.

[OpenGuides-London] Links to redirected pages
by IvorW 13 Jun '05

I'm just musing on the possibility that links to pages that are redirects could be highlighted. They could be shown in a different colour for instance.

[OpenGuides-London] Big renaming progress
by IvorW 10 Jun '05

10 Jun '05

Earle and others, Looking at the page http://london.openguides.org/data/big-renaming.html this is including all pages with post codes, not just the ones that are yet to do. I guess that this is because the pages still exist as #REDIRECTs. Can we exclude these. Better still, can we list these separately, and give a total % of pages done. Ivor.

[OpenGuides-London] The big rename
by Kake L Pugh 01 Jun '05

01 Jun '05

It's been pointed out that not everyone is aware of Earle's decision to rename the pub pages on the guide. For information I point you to: http://london.openguides.org/?Big_Renaming (I'm not really happy with the change, but I thought it would be best to let people know.) Kake

[OpenGuides-London] Re: NEW FEATURE: Category and Locale maps
by worldKit 25 May '05

25 May '05

This is fantastic! I am clicking all over and finding tons of geocoded nodes, nice. Integrating mapufacture into open guides (and vice versa) was on the order of hours work. Shows off how easy mapping is becoming. A couple non-critical suggestions: list the number of geocoded nodes in the map link, then it won't be surprising if no points appear. also, mapufacture accepts a "title" argument, which could be set to the locale or category name. If there's interest in integrating mapufacture with another openguides, or any other service, get in touch.
