Drop some markers and I'll let you know the ideal location to meet your friends for a beer.

You can see the app in action here: http://zugaldia.github.com/zentroid

When you click on the map a marker at that location will be added. When you have two or more we'll automatically drop an X with the centroid location. The centroid of a set of locations is the "average" (arithmetic mean) of all latitudes and longitudes.

NOTES

  • The interactive map is handled by MapBox's Wax and CloudMade's Leaflet.

  • The tiles are based on the beautiful MapBox Streets and are hosted by MapBox.

  • If you make any changes to src/zentroid.js you need to re-minimize it with Closure or change the link in the HTML head.
