Twitter stream

Well we've now succumbed to the growing tidal wave that is Twitter. We're planning on posting minor site updates and some general day-to-day comments, but not a crazy ton of stuff. Feel free to follow us at: http://twitter.com/go_roam. Tweet, tweet!

wikiHow and eHow Articles

We just added How-to articles on wikiHow (http://www.wikihow.com/Add-Google-Maps-to-Your-Website-or-Blog) and eHow (http://www.ehow.com/how_4900224_add-interactive-google-map-blog.html). Check them out and tell us what you think.

Tumblr Tutorial

We've finished a new tutorial for the GoRoam Geomapper: our Tumblr tutorial. If you have a blog on Tumblr, our step-by-step tutorial should help you get a fully-functional Google Map on your blog in no time.

If you don't use Tumblr, refer to our our Blogger tutorial or the general Geomapper How-To Tutorial. And be sure to check back here as we add tutorials for other websites and blogging platforms.

Blogger Tutorial

We've finished our first tutorial for the GoRoam Geomapper: our Blogger tutorial. If you have a blog on Blogger, our step-by-step tutorial should help you get a fully-functional Google Map on your blog in no time.

We've also added a tutorial for the Latitude/Longitude Search page, so check it out if you're having trouble finding the lat/lng for your tags.

If you don't use Blogger, don't worry. You can still use the general Geomapper How-To Tutorial. And be sure to check back here as we add tutorials for other websites and blogging platforms.

GoRoam Geomapper

Mapping enthusiasts: We're excited to announce a completely new application that we think you'll love. We're calling it the GoRoam Geomapper. It makes it as easy as possible for you to add maps to your web pages in just a few easy steps. We've also added an extended help site, so check it out if you need any help with the Geomapper.

Over the course of the next couple weeks, we're planning on adding a bunch of tutorials for your sites if they're hosted in various websites or blogging platforms, so check back often. As always, there's still the original GoRoam application, but we think you'll really find the Geomapper useful. Feel free to email us at support@goro.am with any problems.

Now go out there and start geomapping!

Hosting Move Complete

Well I finished the move last night, but I had to wait for the changes to propogate through the internet. It looks like the changes have now taken effect, though it could take up to another 24 hours before they are seen everywhere. Thank you for your patience during this move. I think the site performs much better already.

Be on the lookout in the next 2-4 weeks for some new functionality.
