I love this new Google technology. Not so sure when it exactly came out but I was first familiar with it on Myspace. What it is is a map of the entire world where dots are used to represent a something significant in that location in which that dot is placed. So for example my friend would have a map titled “People Who Viewed You”. The map then represents people around the world who viewed his Myspace page in a cluster of dots. I decided to get a map on my Myspage page as well because it looked so fun. Mine was called, “People Who Like Pogs”. A week later I check its status. To my misfortune, there wasn’t a single dot on there. Well except for the dots in Alaska.
Lake Forest, CA – Being a Web Nerd is a serious task and éS is proud to say we have the best of the best of the best! They are so damn good that they created a legitimate Skate Spot Website located at eSfootwear.com.
Utilizing the “Extreme Web Nerd” technology of Google Maps and collaborating with SpotCovr, skateboarders from around the world can post-up their beloved red-curb they session daily or showcase that flawless handrail they skate, but no one else can find. We all see the weak attempts, of cities across the world, try and create a local skate park and then skate-stop the legitimate spots in their city, so this is our calling to find anything and everything skateable in the world.
From now until January 1st, 2009 éS will be giving away free éS shoes for a year to the two users who upload the most new spots in the éS Spots section. That’s a pair of shoes every month for a year! The runner-up will get a package consisting of two pairs of éS shoes and free éS apparel!
Before you start, though, here’s some basic rules:
- Only spots with photos or videos are eligible. (Your local drive way flat-bar does not count)
- Spots must contain a good description of location
- Contest ends January 1st ‘09 – that’s two full months to get busy!
- All spots added since August 1st count!
