WIKIMAPIA - A NEW MILESTONE IN EARTH MAPING

Wikimapia. A fantastic projects using google maps API. As they describe themselves it's really "a project to describe the whole planet Earth."You can create hotspots on your favourate landmarks in wikimapia maps. But they humbly request you to avoid adding hotspots like "This my house" stuff marks. The site got attention of the global internet community's attention without making any ad campaigns or any propoganda hypes. Its because of only quality in the stuff. You need using it for only once to understand its userfriendliness. Even any beginner can use that very instantly.

In the early times no search engines brought me any sites with the keyword "wikimapia". But after a couple of days, I got about 47,400 pages with the same keyword. It's growth is really amazing.

The founders of Wikimapia are Alexandre Koriakine and Evgeniy Saveliev, "inspired by Google maps and Wikipedia."
