Very nice idea but useless in Paris. Dots are grouped too aggressively and don't have captions. Need to ungroup and click on each, gave up after checking 20 metro stations and landmarks I already know. Filters are unreadable and puzzling like "Pages including reco...", just wiki categories apparently. Can filter for metro stations but can't filter them out.
It's barely working and have 1k downloads but already shows ads in my face.
- pimlottc 3y agoI agree, dots should only be combined when they are actually overlapping by a significant amount. Otherwise you’re just hiding information in a frustrating way.
- _tk_ 3y agoLooking things up in other urban areas does not yield this result for me. The grouping could be changed though. I can't click some Dots because there's on overlap with another dot. I like the idea and will definitely visit again.
- egypturnash 3y agoYeah, it's pretty useless in New Orleans, too. This is just not designed to cope with a place that is so interesting that you can have big stretches with a half-dozen wikinotable locations in every single block.
- hallman76 3y agoThere's no lens of "good" or "interesting". Its just whether something is in wikipedia. This site is showing us that existence is wikipedia isn't that high of a bar to distinguish that something is actually interesting.
- gureddio 3y agoWell I live in a fairly small city with not a lot nearby, and it's showing me unremarkable nearby high schools
- q1w2 3y agoThere are also just too many entries in dense areas. It's impossible to go through all of them for something that might be interesting for the reader specifically. It would be nice if they could be categorized/color-coded by some type (nature/monument/establishment/etc...) on the map so people can sift through them more easily.
