If you click on the satelite link you can zoom down into the city streets for each of us. I can see buildings in Switzerland! And the mountains and the river valleys and . . . and . . . and :D

Very neat indeed! Thanks AG!

Have you any of you guys mesed around with Google Earth? The Google earth satelite photo set (which is a different image set than what Frapper uses) is recent and very high-resolution for the Bay Area -- it shows our house, our solar panels, and my little white car parked out in front - it's actually a little creepy!

I found that if you zoom in too far the map appears to disappear. In my experience it's not really gone, but you're somehow only seeing white space. I used the arrows to move the map until it reappeared. Not an overly friendly user interface - but, hey, it's free!

You Mac girls could try using a different browser maybe. I always found that some things worked better on IE than Netscape and vice versa when I was using my parents' Mac.

JLD, that's too funny about it not recognising Ottawa. I can see the red dot that says Ottawa with my own eyes. :rolleyes:

Alpine - you've just got two shoutouts, and I think we could all do as many of them as we wanted; there's only one of you on the map.

If I could've put in a British postcode, my marker would point to my street. Still, 6km away isn't half bad on the scale of London.

I tried opening this on my lap top at work, and I'm in! How fun. On the question of how often satelite pictures are taken; we are having a freeway carved through the woods across the road from us :mad:. They started ripping and tearing in March or early April of this year. The close-up of our house still show the lovely woods across the road. So I'm guessing not very often. BikerHen

The photos seem to have been taken at a whole lot of different times. If you scroll around the Thames you can see a join. It's pretty obvious - low tide and oddly clean looking on one the left and high tide and normal muddy colour on the right. Oh, and there's half a plane at the join... :p

Well no wonder you didn't answer the door when I knocked. :D I'm on the other side of town from where it shows me too but you get the idea.
I will be living vicariously through you this winter CorsairMac. I must warn you though, I get downright mean and ornery towards the end of Feb. when we still have snow up to our tooshies. But you knew that from last year.

Bye the way, do you make your guests use the doggie doors?

FYI---If you've been planted in the middle of an industrial park or something, you can "nudge" your marker to your real neighborhood or anywhere you'd like to be. Once you create your account on the map page, go to "edit your basic profile" and it will give you an option to nudge your marker a bit.

As in "Iron my shirts?" "Nein!" I presume. That'd be my answer, if I knew German. The one job I ever got fired from was ironing shirts. I wanted a gardening job, but the job office folks said no, that was boys' work an if I didn't know how to iron shirts yet at 16 how would I manage when I got married. Can you believe it?!

it was one of our "jobs" when we were growing up and I remember getting in constant trouble with my mom coz I wouldn't iron it the way SHE wanted it done. To this day, I won't iron anything if I can possibly avoid it! :rolleyes:

sorry - I added myself twice.... can the owner remove me?

I did this too, but at the bottom of the map page after you log in, I think you can delete it under TE shoutouts. I misspelled my first one so I eventually found that I could delete it myself by clicking "remove my shoutout". Ooops.

[Quote from Frappr site, "How do I remove my post and/or photo? If you created a Frappr Member Account, you can remove your own entries by clicking the '(Remove)' link next to shoutouts, member lists, or photos. If you don't have an account, contact the person who created the Frappr (the Frappr admin). He or she can delete it for you.

Or...To add a shoutout, just enter your name, zipcode, and shoutout above. Your name will only appear once on the map, but you can enter multiple shoutouts the same way."]

I hope this works. Click on the link and add yourself to the map! TE map (http://www.frappr.com/teamestrogen)

Great idea!

I Frapper'd months ago, but when I clicked on the map today I didn't even show up unless I searched the list for my name first.:confused:

So, I just cruised over there and the TE HQ wasn't showing up either. But then I figured out that by default it only shows 50 of the markers. At the bottom right of the map, there's an option to "Show 100 more" . It will progressively add markers. Alternatively, as you zoom in on your location, it adds more markers. When I zoomed on Oregon, TE popped up.

It seems your zoomability (is that a word? that's what we've called it here, so you'll find it soon in the OED) depends upon how detailed their images are of your location. Zoomabilityness ;) :rolleyes: :cool: of some areas is better than others.

I'm fairly new to this forum. That's why I don't have a pix up but the other reason is I don't know how to do it. I can't find where to go! I need help. I live in Seattle, turning the BIG 60 in Sept. My 2 daughters is doing the Danskin Triathlon with me in honor of me turning 60! It will be my second time and their first time. I'm SO excited. Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself and this is the only way I know of right now. Love this website!!!!!

Welcome to TE! Best way to find rides/riders here is post in the "places to ride" threads. Here's the USA section for example.

One of the great things about TE is unlike most other discussion groups some of us actually get to meet each other. :D

Hi everyone, I'm new around here. I think a map of members is an awesome idea, maybe it could be resurrected on Google Maps?

I created a map and made it public and added a pin in my city. The map's here (http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF&msa=0&msid= 209184585870049161205.0004a9df9c08301872724), just follow the link, click Edit, search for your city or zip code, then right click and select Add a Placemark. I named my placemark with my screen name, but that's not necessary.

Unfortunately, everyone who placed a pin on Frappr would have to redo that on Google.

Just a thought, what does everyone else think?

Hi shootingstar. I'm new to cycling, just bought a road bike about a month ago and I stumbled on the TE forums looking for advice on saddles from a female perspective. I read a whole bunch of threads discussing saddles and I have a Brooks B68 saddle on its way in the mail. I've been browsing a bunch since then and it seems like a great group of ladies on here.

I didn't mean to overstep my bounds with my suggestion, I just wanted to throw it out there as an idea. :o

Thought you were responding to the post by Snapdragen above and took it that way. I'm new to the forum too and have picked up a whole load of useful advice already. Re Google maps, that's beyond me. Helps to read instructions I suppose...
