Comments on: Bikelogger: GPS tracking service for cyclists http://thenextweb.com/2008/06/08/bikelogger-gps-tracking-service-for-cyclists/ International technology news, business & culture Wed, 23 May 2012 15:05:18 +0200 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Ruben http://thenextweb.com/2008/06/08/bikelogger-gps-tracking-service-for-cyclists/#comment-363747 Ruben Tue, 10 Jun 2008 16:59:41 +0000 http://thenextweb.org/?p=1290#comment-363747 They don't lack a cute design, or social network integration or a badass api. Those might be useful when the service is actually used. What they do need is to explain what the service does, how it works, give me a (clear) call to action, make the registration process easy and then tell me how to actually use the service. And THEN, they could try to get some blog coverage. So far: crap :(( I'm off Googling how to create gpx files on my mobile, maybe I'll find a site that actually does help :) PS: EJ: wanna ride the Amstel with me, I'm a regular biker :) They don’t lack a cute design, or social network integration or a badass api.

Thanks for the info! PS. Knut, Promos are in the upper right corner, have a look at them as you won't find them in the articles. @Knut and @Robbie I’ve Googled with some GPS and biking keywords, coloudn’t find them though.

I am sorry, but your article sounds more like promo, because this kind of website is already there for a couple of years and many people are using it.

I'd love a little GPS bug that I could put on my bike (maybe hidden within the frame) and would phone home with its location every 24 hours or so.
