Nestoria sponsors Mapstraction
Hello again Nestoria fans! (not to be confused with Nestorians of course - we're still trying to figure out the right term for our users - suggestions welcome).
I'm delighted to announce our sponsorship of Mapstraction. Mapstraction is a volunteer effort to create a javascript library that makes it easy to use different online mapping services.
Why does Nestoria sponsor Mapstraction? The past year internet users have benefited from an unprecedented level of innovation in online mapping. We're interested in providing Nestoria users with the best possible user experience. Right now we think that means using Google maps. But in the future that might well mean using maps from someone else, perhaps even the open source mapping service being developed by OpenStreetMap. Mapstraction will give us the greatest flexibility to always provide you, the user, with a compelling mapping service.
Please let us know how you like our integration of maps and properties. We're always interested in feedback, be it praise or constructive criticism. We already have a few new map related features in the works that we'll be revealing in the coming weeks.
