I had a look at this when it first came up as a possible SCALE demo
piece. Very cool! And it makes a good response to folks who are
considering jumping ship to Ruby because of Rails. Lots of the cool
web 2.0 GIS stuff is shown on this site. And as a tie in, can we get
at tech talk by some of the folks who put this site together? If so,
it would be a nice way to advertise the group's cool talks.
