Hi folks,

since Google Earth is such a nice toy to play around with, some members of these forums startet to bring together their placemarks so everyone can see where they live.

I would like to encourage you all to add your placemarks to our directory at http://tmp.modforge.de/ac-placemarks/
You can see who's already listed and download each user's placemark seperately or a file that contains all users' placemarks. i recommend you use the .kmz variant of the latter since there is a common style with an icon included.

The whole thing might look like this:
[screenshots broken, sorry]

If you like, you can visit the original thread and ask questions or add comments there.

Have fun!

The application behind the list, Placemark Directory, is now available for download.

BTW, some more entries from countries except Germany would be quite nice

Edit: On the Google Earth download site you can get a version for Mac OS X (10.3.9 +).

Of course, we have quite some dogmatic Mac-users here (both on the AC board as well as in Germany

).

Just updated the first posting with the new, current and presumably future URL of the placemark list.
