Hi

Wonder if there is navigators for cars or mobile phones that show different ways of payment on screen when driving? What I would like to see is places that accept bitcoin on navigator map.

Can one set googlemap attributes so that it would show bitcoin accepting places? Myself im unable to use googlemaps for variety of reasons so cant check it myself.. Cheesy

Would this be possible to be made somehow? I think it would require huge database where every merchant that wants itself listed on it (or their payment processors).

This would tremendously help people get into the places where it is possible to use bitcoin. Planning a route for trip based on bitcoin friendliness would be great.

Sorry if this kind of service exists and Im asking dumb questions

Let me hear what you think!

I recommend avoiding proprietary maps.

http://coinmap.org/ uses Open Street Map.

Okay so its been done (couldnt still check it as my settings wont show anything on the screen=) )

Main point was that if there is such a map, it should be easily accessible to most people using bitcoin.

perhaps a wallet software with integrated map showing nearest places to use bitcoin
