Geographical exhibitionism
It is well known that it is not so pleasant to travel, as then to show off to friends and acquaintances about where he was and what he saw. But why put it off indefinitely, you can now travel in the Reality Show mode.
A MapSphere startup was created specifically for this. They position themselves as both an alternative to GoogleEarth and a social network of travelers.
How it works? You take with you a laptop, GPS, cellular modem, and put more money on your mobile account. Register on the MapSphere.Online website and go on a trip.

Almost throughout your trip, you can be online (well, not counting some of the air flights and trips to the center of the earth). With the help of the MapSphere client you transmit your current coordinates to the server, you can see other travelers, you have access to all maps and satellite images from all possible sources, including Google Maps and Microsoft Virtual Earth. Live chat with friends is available to you and you can have a mobile blog with notes and photos on the MapSphere.Online website. The track of your movements is also recorded on the server, and all your friends will die of envy, watching from your office as you drive along the ocean coast and tell them about the color of the sand on the beach.
There is a slight stir in the travel and geo-social networks market. Immediately I recall Yahoo.Travel, Loopt, Flicr, MirTesen, VeniVidi and many others. Judging by the serious struggle, this niche is considered to be very promising.
