A Day in Paradise

What started out as a simple google maps hack has turned into a full featured social networking site with some really nice features.

Since the maps are the main reason why people are at frappr, they have used this in some cool ways, for example the chat applet is integrated with the maps, so the map will zoom over to the location of the person who last entered a message. There is also a nice “Cool people near you” feature, which pulls up people in your general area.

There is also the ability to customize your page, add pictures/music, blog, add images, and of course embed so much javascript and flash that your profile will crash all but the strongest of browsers.

More than just the nice features, it’s good to see this small application maturing to something that could at some point have a business built around it.
