Too much information crowded with link and times all misaligned. It’s hard to read.

I agree, it would be a good idea.</p> Mike, the map thing has been discussed off and on as part of the loco dir for awhile. I agree, it would be a good idea.

Is there any Google Maps type map that shows LoCos or registered events, like the team members map on Launchpad? It could be really cool if there was such a map for LoCos, where the pinpoints linked to the individual LoCo pages, to make it really easy to go from “here I am to” to “now I know where the nearest LoCo is”.

A similar calendar for LoCo events could also be neat; if I’m travelling I can check out the map and see all events in the next month or whatever the defined period is, as well as discover neat things going on in my current LoCo that I may not be aware of.

The LoCo part could be easy to manage in Launchpad, but it looks like the team itself cannot set a location, just the members. Anyway, just a thought on how to potentially make it even easier for someone to get involved/interested in LoCos and the Ubuntu community.
