Bikely - location format

I notice today that new routes are going up with Country:State:City
fields that can be sorted. Bravo!

How about the old routes - can I edit my routes with this information?
I couldn't work out how to do it ... or are you sifting through them
and doing this yourself?

I have a couple of routes that were put in very early in the piece. It's
very easy to do this: search for your route (here's a suggestion: have
an option after you login for "your routes", so you can get to them
quickly if you want to edit them), then click on the route you want.
You'll see "Find a city". Search for the appropriate city, and click on
it. Save the route, and it'll be categorised.

Log in, then open your route. Note the red text in the left column that
asks you to categorise your route. Do it (search city, click it), then
save the route ;-)

Done, easy.
Will you be emailing all route creators to ask them to do this?
I guess in due course you will have a sort facility for city.
I hope you've worked out an angle to make money from this!

I tried that... I type in Sydney, select the correct sydney, nothing
seems to happen. If I move the mouse I see "transferring data from
mt.google.com" but still no change.

Well, I hope there is an angle. Jules deserves it, from his innovation
and effort. The rapid development over the past few days is good to
see.

Unless he's one of those wacko nutjobs who do things just because they
enjoy doing so, in which case he's a commie [censored] 🙂

These days I'd use MOSFETs. 1kV 6A (use at 200VDC) ones are about $10 US.

Did you save the route afterwards? It worked for me (Safari, OS X
Tiger.)

Nah I'm a dirty capitalist through and through ;-)

I'll put it this way - if the traffic is sustained at anything like the
levels of today, then you can expect to see my adsense account plugged
in at some point.

No rush, though, as it will take some thought as far as ad location an
integration goes. And it will only be worthwhile if the traffic remains
_large_.

Cheers,
Jules

Yeah it doesn't offer much in the way of confirmation yet ;-)
You do need to save your route after this, though.

Yes. Firefox, Fedora Core 4.

Did that. But it asked me to select city when I went there again.

So after 3 tries, it seems to have taken...

Gawd Tim, you're beginning to sound like our resident troll(s)! It's not
catching....is it!?

I hope you've been taking your medication (a good stiff bike ride followed
by a lie down)???

on the subject of Search, we can currently only Search by country.
I guess I can use find on page to restrict it to Canberra or Victoria
but thats less obvious.

Great job so far 🙂

Is good, thanks Jules.

I did all my routes.
