Tokyo Picturesque @07:28 AM

Tokyo Picturesque (alpha version) is a site where people in Tokyo can attach pics taken with their GPS enabled mobile phone. The system then associates that image with the location on the map where it was taken.

Sounds really cool. I think it would make a great travel log. When I went to the site however, I just got the map, with no location/image pairs. I am probably just missing something...

Hiya, since the project was an experiment and I didn't expect this many people be interested in it, the project has no error handeling. Sorry about that.The most likely reason for no location/image pair is that your flash player is pre version 7. You need to have the newest flash plugin installed. hope this helps.

That was it! I was running some variant of version 6 on my linux machine. After Upgrading to version 7.0 I was able to view the pairs. Thanks for the for help, and congrats on the great site.
