If you’ve been keeping an eye on our placemark coverage map, you’ve probably noticed that we’ve been expanding our footprint to most metropolitan areas in the United States. We’re focusing primarily on meeting places, like bars, restaurants, coffee shops, cafes, book stores, arenas, and the like, but have avoided most retail establishments. It can be easy to get carried away!

While we’ve done the major metropolitan areas, coverage is still sparse in less populous areas. But you can help — and it’s easy! Just let us know what you’d like to see covered next, and we’ll do the rest. Rounding out our U.S. coverage is a priority, as well as initiating coverage in the UK.

Because all of our activities and connections occur somewhere, at some specific geographic point on the Earth, codifying those points represents another step forward in the evolution of our product. And we’re glads to be moving forward.
