Foundcity.net - Tagging on Online Maps

Have you ever walked around a city, found some restaurant or establishment you liked and then wanted to note it down for later use or to share with friends? Foundcity allows you to do just that. It´s a social mapping tool that permits you to tag places of interest, blog them or share them amongst other users of Foundcity. You can do the tagging either from your computer or from your mobile phone, which is the ultimate way of map tagging while out and about on the town. You can publish your findings openly or you can keep them private as your own personal mapping tool. You can tag any place in the US, Canada or the UK and Foundcity offers you the chance to create a social profile to keep up with other Foundcity users.

¨ Foundcity is a social mapping tool for creating a personalized map of your life on-the-fly. From your computer or cell phone, you tag locations, add photos, label them with any words you want, and plot them to your map, which you can share with friends, keep private, or publish openly.¨

Foundcity is a great way of sharing what you love about a city and finding out advice about the best restaurants, salons, language schools or whatever interests you. If you are traveling to a foreign city, this site is great for pointing you in the right direction. Or if you´re trying to get to know your own city better, Foundcity is a great visual tool to help you do so. The homepage itself could be a bit more desirable though for, besides the featured map, it´s a bit basic.

can Foundcity spice up their website? When will I be able to tag cities outside of the US, UK and Canada? Can Foundcity add a forum to their site to encourage discussion amongst users?
