[Slightly offtopic] The app street-complete allows to hunt for information and contribute to OpenStreetMaps (feddit.org)

My favorite feature: The Team-Mode, where you and friends can battle it out. Great when hanging around with a bigger group of friends, you can split up for a set amount of time and see, who gets the most points.

I am not affiliated with the app, but really enjoy it and thought that you guys might like it as well. Have a nice day!

Had to check it out on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.westnordost.streetcomplete

That looks pretty cool! Love that you can play it like a game as a team. I need to try this out

Yea, right? And you get links to apps/websites which use OSM. Most of them I have never heard of or found while googeling.

The OpenSource Community is the best part of the web, maybe even the last good part.
