OpenStreetMap grows, spawns ecosystem

,----[ Quote ]
| OpenStreetMap started four years ago in the UK as a project to create a free 
| and editable world map. What began as a few geogeeks wandering the streets 
| with their GPS’s has turned into a global movement with over 75,000 
| registered contributors. The database has improved rapidly in quality and  
| comprehensiveness, as have the tools and services around it. OSM is becoming 
| a viable datasource for complex projects.
