I use gmap-pedometer to route all of my runs. I probably use it about 2-3 times a week so I've been waiting for someone to build something a bit more versatile and possibly even let me create routes from a mobile phone (this would be a cool feature and differentiate for you). I've been staring at your site for the last 2 minutes and I can't figure out how to create a route. I think I glanced at one of the comments here and they said single click to drop a marker.... I'll give that a shot. But if I can't figure out how to create a route within 5 seconds you need to find a better way to communicate it. |

1. The routes don't follow the street...this is good when I go off the road but not so good when I am 100% roads. I like how gmap follows the street as much as possible until you switch it to "off road" which lets you route wherever you want.
2. I really like your elevation chart. Nice job. What would be even better is if the elevation chart had an X-axis that mapped the elevation to the current distance in the run. That way I know that the hill will hit me at mile 4, etc.
3. Public link to route should automatically highlight and copy for me. (click to copy)
Additional ideas for features:
-let me drop a note at a certain place along the route to share info -let the community specify areas of high traffic, tourists, etc. -share routes with the community, get feedback
-one problem which I haven't thought about too much yet. when we share routes with each other, everyone has a different "starting" location. it would be good if your site knew my starting location and then when I viewed someone else's route it would automatically re-route and re-calculate the fastest way for me to join his route and at which point to join.... I hope that makes sense.
great work overall.
