The HRO Google Map
Unta
http://maps.googl...e&z=19

If you think you'd like to let everyone know where you are from in a visual way. I've started an HRO Google map. I added my location, with just the town I live in. Thought it might be a cool way to see where everyone is from .

How To Post your Location

click the link above
click save to my maps.
log in to your google Acct.
click edit
then click the add a placemark icon on the map.
Place icon in your town on your road where ever you would like to associate with your self.
the click save and then done!
If you dont have a goole account and would like your placemark fixed id be happy to do it for you. Just send me a PM.

It would be neat to see everyone on one map... but... can it be done? May have to simply put a link to where you are, so we'll have a collection of individual links...?

Back in the day a fellow by the name of Danny McNulty started a map for were the alt.coffee folks were. Back when a.c was friendly place to be.
http://www.twoloo...y/map.html
Alas Danny passed away but Steve Ackman of Twoloons has continued to host the page. If I am not mistaken there are a couple of HRO folk on that map.

I added myself to the HRO map

Whoops. I accidently edited the map title and couldnt remember what it originally was. I renamed it The HRO Group Map.

Anyway, I'm on there now too.

Great idea Sean!

I'm officially on the map now.

Can you see if you can add a feature to our HRO map.

I'd like to be able to scan the map and identify coffee roasting smoke. Should be possible with these new hi-tech satellites they keep launching.

This way I could locate other home roasters in my area since in my area they seem to hide out.:trink29:
1/2 lb and 1 lb drum, Siemens Sirocco fluidbed, presspot, chemex, cajun biggin brewer from the backwoods of Louisiana
 
JETROASTER
Infrared is the way to go. Scan garages for 420? .smile Scott

I was unable to edit from a droid. Does anyone know the trick? _Scott
 
Unta
You need to be logged into your google account to edit info..I would try to use your browser rather then the map app. other then that, I couldn't figure out anything using the Map app on my droid X either.

Ok, I did it. Missouri is now represented (I suppose I could add some other infrequent members who live here too, then we'd look like a mecca...)

Now I know how to plan vacation driving routes!!!!!

Yeah, if you have a spare room for families to stay over on trips, just make us a note.
