HI all,

Sorry for spamming, but seeing that the other OSM-post got quite some traction, I wanted to point out that the OSM-community here is coming to life as well.

You can post your beginner questions into the newbie friday thread or brag about your mapping projects into the showoff sunday thread

At last, please post OSM-related content over there! We need to get this party started…

    All hail OSM!!!

    OSMAnd has literally saved my life when my Garmin died and my hiking buddy’s phone also died and I remembered I had saved off-line maps for the state we were in and could traveling-salesman our way out of the mountains safely.

      OSMAnd is pretty nice, but Organic Maps is just way better IMHO.

        I can never get search to work. I can find addresses on the map, but when I type them in nothing comes up.

        Better how? I’ve only played around with OSMand a little but it seems very full of features and options.
