Create a Map, win a $40 Amazon.com Gift Certificate!

How do we know if MapTrot is useful (and bug free) if we don't have lots of people using it?

To encourage more users, more map creation, and to celebrate all the new KML functionality (see next post), we're giving away a $40 Amazon.com gift certifcate!

Just create a map in May, publish it, and send the url to your friends, family, workmates, email lists, and anyone who might be interested. Make a map (which can include layers, of course!) about something topical, interesting, or just plain fun, and get the word out so people can see it.

With the new Digg/Reddit/Netscape/Delicio.us/StubleUpon submission buttons at the top of every map, it's easy to submit your maps to those services for other people to check out and comment on.

It's fun, but it helps us shake out the system, find bugs, see what people really create (and view) and let's us figure out what's working and what's not.

Whoever creates the map with the most views at the end of May, will win a $40 Amazon.com Gift Certificate.

Good Luck!
