Now you can search for Blogs registered in BlewSpace matching your searching criteria: - Name of the author - Title of the Blog - Theme of the Blog - Description of the Blog - Also you can center the map in a given location.
Jusore has proposed us a bunch of great ideas: Show the distance between blogs. Show the blogroll joining the blogs with coloured lines. Send private messages between users. We will take it into consideration. Thanks for your feedback Jusore.
Alicante Vivo has proposed us an excellent idea: Why don't allow bloggers to maintain a "BlogFriends" map drawing lines between blogs to see how far are they from their friends? We will think about it. Thanks a lot Alicante Vivo.
A list of things to do: Show the map centered on the visitor's location. Multi-language support (at least Spanish). Get feeds from registered blogs. Search for blogs (search by theme, location, author, some text on the description ...). Vote your favourite blog (adding some kind of marks on the information bubbles for each blog and a top-ten list). Use a geocoder to register blogs. Lots of things to do. Working on it...
I would like to explain what does "ping a Blog" mean. When you add a Blog to BlewSpace you are providing a Blog's name, a URL, a theme and a brief description of your Blog, but there is no way to ensure that you are the author of the Blog that you are publishing. To ensure that you can ping your Blog. To ping your Blog you have to copy a <meta> tag that will be provided to you by BlewSpace and paste it into the header section of your Blog. Then you have to click on a link on BlewSpace and your Blog will be pinged (the mark icon in the main map will change telling the visitors that your Blog is pinged). Once you have completed the pinging process you can delete the <meta> tag in your Blog (it will be no longer needed). If you decide not to ping your Blog, it will have exactly the same functionality than a pinged one but a different icon on the map. All visitors can see pinged and not pinged Blogs in the map and they can click on the mark to see the information balloon with the link to your Blog.
