Collaborative vacation mapping

In 7 weeks I will be visting family in London. My husband and I haven't been there in a few years and it will our one-year-old son's first time so we're very excited. The last time we were there, I started a Google Map to keep track of places I wanted to go so that I could visually see the geographic implications and proximities.

Since then, Google has added much more detail including accurate transit stops and tons more commercial and cultural destinations. Just now I was looking at the location of a cool bookstore we visited, and noticed that there's a bar called Ruby Lounge around the corner. I might have to check that out if we get back to that neighborhood.

This year I'm feeling brave so I'm opening up the map for my friends (and whoever the rest of those people who follow me on Twitter are) to add items to the map.  Let's hope it doesn't turn into vacation by committee! ;-)
