Fantastic! You hit within a half-mile due south of where I actually live. Plenty close enough! Thanks!

Just registered, I heard of another Mini on Guam I hope he is on this site...

Nice work. I'm in, I just plotted it and it showed up. Thanks for making this way cool map??

I just added my info. The dot appeared on the map just as you said it would. Thanks for setting this up for everyone.

If people have any mechanics that work on classic minis or parts supply stores please post on here and I will put it on the map.

Thank you for contributing, yea i don't know the specifics of the geocode and im tweaking it to automatically offset if there are two coincidental points (might be why yours was way off). I did go in a change it to a general location near a Bell's Corner - take a look. If people want to put in a specific address that works too but some users might be aprehensive in doing so which is why just a city, state entry works too.

Well, l just posted my location as Niagara Ontario Canada, right on top of (BlueBox) Don Elcombe a neighbour of mine and l am real close to Dan Moffet except he is 350 miles N/East from me- Interesting to note one guy has NZ all to himself- BIG AL

I found my pin too. Unfortunately, it is outside Potsdam NY. I "belong" in Bell's Corners, on the ouskirts of Ottawa Ontario. Probably the 'average point' code you mentioned. But I'm patient. Let us know when updates support closer proximity etc. Good stuff!

I just found my dad's pin first one I hovered over.  That is pretty fun right there.  Thanks

damn i remember this part of MiniPortal.ca right Lurch?

I've made a few more tweaks to the site. A common question I see on many forums is people asking for referrals for mini mechanics in their area. So, this update is to include mechanics location (current'y not many), parts suppliers, and shops that do both garage work and ship parts. The current garages and suppliers are just from an initial google search. If you would like to contribute please feel free to use the contact link. MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Sorry about that, I think the reason for some of the entries being slightly off was I added a code for taking the average for points at the same location (it moved them too far). I'm cartodb (database site) won't let me display multiple inforwindows at the same point, just the most recent. I'm working on fix to all for clustering so people with multiple cars can be seen. I'll continue to work this and post updates when available. As mentioned earlier, please feel free to send me comments, ideas, critics, so that we can have a useful tool.

 

Thanks, yea, I broke the first of many web development rules and rushed to get this out. I thought about the Google account setup but I was really wanting a site that didn't need another account/login/password setting (I think we all have enough of those). I have seen some multiple inputs that I've edited in the database.If it gets out of hand I'll work something out, but I'll take any comments, ideas, critics to make this a better tool for the community.

thanks again for looking.

 

Ah, yes, that's the one - thanks!

no, that one was Mini Park... //minipark.net ...way cool, still up

http://minipark.net

Would this have been the mini parking lot or parking garage or some such thing?  I remember adding my mini to one around that time...  So long ago -

Great job Mayfair - just added myself in.  I see several friends in there already.  In the Google forms API you may want to add an association with a user Google account just to prevent multiple entries/spamming.  Unless that's built into this app already.

Thank you for doing this!

Made a map like this from scratch... Well before Google maps existed. Some of you may recall. Would have been fifteen years ago now. I still have the code and most of the data. About 500 or so people's worth.

My location is pretty close, but then there is another me in the southern tip of Texas. Unless there is a doppelganger car, state and person; you'll need to do some tweaking.

Does it take a while? Mine does not show up.
