(Sorry for typo in last post; I meant to type in "you may have seen" instead of "you have seen".) <br>There was a short mention of the xo map in the Community News Digest Vol 32, Issue 3:<br>------------------<br>
<span class="nfakPe">Eben</span> created a Global G1G1 GoogleMap which allows everyone to post the<br>
location of their XO. In just a few days the <span class="nfakPe">map</span> has been viewed more<br>
than 41,000 times, primarily by last year's G1G1 participants who<br>
received their email thank yous. Add your XO<br>

I'd be glad to add my XO to the map, but, no I haven't seen the post<br>
about it, and there's no way to add a record on the Google Maps page.<br>
What's the procedure?<br>

No, two in the residence section, for the girls. The Secret Service<br>
doesn't let the President carry around anything that broadcasts his<br>
location. He had to give up his Blackberry the day after the election.<br>
