A small but nifty feature...
I have installed a program that will allow users to see where other users are in the world. Each user will need to go into the system and enter their location before they appear. You don't need to pin-point your actual house but the town would be nice.
The mapping system used is Google Maps. You can zoom in and pan around the map, as well as switch between map and satellite view. Temporary Link |
A program isn't built on one player and it doesn't succeed because of one player, thus a program won't fail if it doesn't get that one player. |

Cool, there's a lot of college kids in this area. I can guarantee you one thing, I'm paying less. $200/month (4 rooms). Our landlord knocked down the price after we told him we were wrestlers in high school.

Cool stuff!

I don’t care… I want Jack Trice stadium to be the loudest in the Big 12 and I think that creates homefield advantage.... I want to stress to everyone…I want this place to be juiced up. They bought 36,000 season tickets so there is a passion there…don’t hide it… let it out. I want there to be a passion in the stadium."
