Bitesize 16 - Restaurant Reviews With Maps at Ning.com
Marc Andreesen, best known for co-creating the original Netscape web browser, recently launched his "social networking playground" and application builder, ning.com. It's an amusing website and brilliant concept, with some very basic applications that you can enjoy. Though it's not the basic applications I'm impressed with, but what you can do with them.
The Ning.com playground is set up so that you can clone the application, tweak it to your liking, and publish it. This isn't the blog for technical stuff - watch my http://www.mathgurusonline.com website for the announcement of a multi-blog called WebGuru - so I'll just point you at an example: Restaurant Reviews With Maps (http://restaurantreviewswithmaps.ning.com).
So for the more enterprising of you foodies, if you've ever wanted to run your own Zagat's Survey/Guide (http://www.zagat.com/) on the Internet, complete with maps, ning.com allows you to do so - once you've got a (free) developer's license.
