Wow, this is really engaging. I love scrolling through photos and seeing them on a map, and I could imagine using this to plan my next travel destination.

I think this is very browsable if there is a lot of content, so I suspect your next step would be to somehow get the content from everywhere worth visiting as soon as you can, so that you can become a default destination for anybody planning a trip. How can you get the content?

Hey bestattack thanks! I'm Lucal's other cofounder Anton. Absolutely thats the idea! Its useful for those planning a new trip - by seeing how a particular area in a destination looks like in real-time and through the eyes of those that live there, (giving a local perspective and not just a commercial/tourist one). Also when just wanting to explore the world and find new, remote places and seeing whats happening there and they are all about.
