    Hi Laurent,

    Re^3: Put your Club on the Map ! Geo-localisation
    Great !
    It is an excellent first visibility improvement.
    I hope that one day the map will be automatically generated from the official base, with a xml or soap service .
    It'll be a pity to use an external services like dapper.net or yahoo pipes for a similar services.

    A very technical discussion for most of our members ...
    perhaps have we to open a dedicated webmaster forum here ?

    Geolocalization - two others amazing tools
    1 # http://toastmasters.sysadmininc.com - Toastmasters Club Mapping Project
    A project managed by Nigel Reed, District 50 Public Relations Officer
    Unofficial Area Motto: "I'm sure there's a speech in that somewhere"
    (Thanks Pc for the information :-)
    Check your Club position on the district map, contact Nigel if you could help him

    2 # One other international project should be to use the "Local Business Center" service of Google for localization purpose.
    some English clubs have yet done an amazing job with this tool
    http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=l&hl=en&geocode=&...

    it will give a better visibility to each club all around the word
    but this kind of project have preferably to be managed by TM office,
    I currently manage a similar project for one of my customers,
    It's just a database importation :-)

    Imagine the usage of this tool, associated with the free goggle couponing option ...
