Creating a story on mobile felt a bit rough around the edges but overall - super cool!
I've got some foodie friends i can't wait to share this with. They'll go insane with this.
Nice work guys!
@yonidariel Yeah creating only works on desktop/tablet. Using it works everywhere... Thanks :)

@benln@mapme Awesome product. Would love to see a Real Estate play where you integrated mapme with a the realtors CRM creating on-demand, custom listing maps for each client. Think: A map of NYC with images, videos, listing info, ect.
Check out loftey.com - a real estate start-up that would be a great partner.
Great work, Ben and the team! It's really exciting to see the product evolution.
The popularity of maps is definitely on the rise, first of all due to a shift in the way we consume information today (more visual, and it's % is growing annually).
Are you planning to organize all the stories (as their number will grow) for easier discovery? Or you plan to only provide the mapping tool, not the content discovery.
(as an example, I jumped to one of the stories provided as an example, and didn't find where to go next, to see another or similar story).

Great idea! I have used custom Google Maps extensively in the past but the discovery of others' maps as a starting point is definitely lacking there.
Have you considered making the input of places into map easier? Not sure if this applies to other use cases but mine generally revolves around trip planning, and the one-by-one lengthy process (or at least it feels like one) of entering each place causes me to switch to using a word editor so I can focus on quick collection of places I am interested in, and then when I am done and if feeling really motivated, I go through the effort of inputting the places into a custom map. It would be really awesome if I could just copy/paste from email/doc/text or simply just free form write into your service, and your service automatically auto-resolved the places in the text and created a custom map out of it.
@benln congrats. We've been using mapme stories for a while now but with a slight twist. We use it as a directory of sorts for existing/prospective users to locate our monthly events. I'd love to see an address/zip search bar to quickly pinpoint events nearby.
