GeoURL Re-launched

It looks like Daniel Schaller has re-launched the old GeoURL ser­vice. I say ‘re-launched’ but to be accur­ate he didn’t launch it in the first place. That was Joshua Schachter, who is extremely busy with the very won­der­ful del.icio.us at the moment.

The ori­ginal GeoURL.org has been down for renov­a­tions for over 9 months now. Daniel decided to do some­thing about that and thus GeoURL.info was born.

The ser­vice seems to be off to a slow start; just 108 sign-ups in a month. I’ve signed up to the new ser­vice now and updated my links in the left column. If you want to do the same be aware that the find my neigh­bours url has a slightly dif­fer­ent format. You now have to provide your lat and long in the URL rather than just your registered site name. Here is mine: find my neigh­bours. I’ve set the dis­tance quite high for now as there are so few on it.

Update: Daniel has imple­men­ted the old way of query­ing; by using your site url. See his comment.
