goKML.net :: Short Links to KML content

I think it turned out pretty well (esp for just an evenings hacking) – it even has an element of ‘design’ – which is saying something!

So if you want to create a network link wrapper with the minimum of fuss, and might enjoy having it as a short url, then give it a go.

Of course there are still a few things that could be done, but will leave these for another day…

• Auto discover the ‘title’
• Intelligence for ‘My Map’s – eg support multiple pages, and maybe some other KML types.
• Actually make the admin page useful – display stats (they are stored already) , and edit the link
• A public gallery of popular/new etc links – maybe even some sort of search – esp if we can do rudimentary indexing of the content (when fetch the title)
• Support for named links eg could choose gokml.net/fredsparty.kml
• Complete the support for the various network link options – particulaly making it easier to select the appropriate settings.
• Maybe even support for forwarding the link by email (and/or sending the admin link to yourself)
• Any thing you can think of – let me know!
