Purple Pedal Power
So, at Yahoo's OpenHackLondon earlier this year my Purple Pedal Power hack won "Best Flickr Prize". Basically it's a visualisation tool that displays the photos taken by the Purple Pedals bikes over a moving map that follows the routes the bikes take and was written in a couple of hours as an exercise in learning how YQL worked.
Anyhow, two things have given me a bit of impetus to give it some polish and push it live - firstly at last week's AGI Geocommunity the BBC demoed an application with a vaguely similar concept, but coded in Silverlight, and secondly HackDay comes to New York next weekend. Hope you NYC hackers have fun - can't wait to see what comes out of it. You can visit Purple Pedal Power at http://labs.andrewl.net/pppp - it's still a hack and likely to be buggy, so be nice to it. :)
