Spent some time mapping the shortcuts my neighborhood using Google Mapmaker. Luckily I was able to get most of my data from the Oakland Urban Paths database.

My mapmaker profile is here:

The crazy thing is despite being a tech lead for Google+ Connected Sites I didn't have this in our node mapper system. I'll have to get right on that :-)

Picked up one of these this weekend at Peets. It makes great iced coffee!

Pseudo invite to Google+

Hi Oren,

Senidng on behalf of Byrne Reese.. I'm pretty sure this post will send you a Google+ invite. If not please email me at lindner@inuus.com and I'll get you when the next window cracks open.

Help your friends find you! - another Google+ tip...

Add and verify all of your email addresses to your Google Account here:

https://plus.google.com/settings/general

This makes it easier for your friends to find you now and in the future! I've found that I don't know the gmail address of many people, but I do know their corp email or another alias. Plus if you lose your password you can send a recovery email to your alternate address.

Be aware that you can only associate one email per Google account and you can't add another gmail address to another account. If you want to associate email addresses to your primary account you can visit this page:

https://www.google.com/accounts/EditUserInfo

1) If the email is listed as a secondary address, remove it on the old account and add to the primary.

2) If the email is primary you can change the email address of the unused account and replace it with something like username+unused@gmail.com. Then add the renamed email to the primary account.

Cheers.

Hi current and former Six Apart folks..

Hope you're enjoying your foray's into Google+.. Sending this out so some of you might receive invites. (It's somewhat non-deterministic, so I'm not sure if it'll go out..)

Feel free to hit the send feedback link in the lower right or ping me. Also I'm happy to work with anyone on driving deeper connectivity to Six Apart or other properties. (My main focus is on connecting sites, contacts, activities, all that..)
