Funny you should mention this. I am considering a map that people
add themselves to via MapServer, PostGIS and PostgreSQL. We'll see
if I even have the time to implement it ;-).

That's a good idea and you're right. If I go so far as to create fields
for people to enter their name, city, country, etc., adding another
field for notes or something is not hard at all.

	As long as you're going that far, you might as well add the option 
for people to include a URL to a local newspaper or other web site that 
would give a feel for the town.  For example, for Philadelphia:

http://www.philly.com/
	(general interest)

http://www.usatoday.com/travel/extraday/philadelphia/fitness.htm
	(Philadelphia, "The City of Blubberly Love")
