I&#8217;ve done a little example that generates a Jamaica place name map. It pulls the raw web pages from the Directory of Cities, Towns, and Regions in Jamaica site (http:\/\/fallingrain.com\/world\/JM\/) and transforms them into RSS feeds using the online HTML-RSS converter from Feed43 (Feed For Free) at <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/feed43.com\/\">http:\/\/feed43.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The good thing about feed43 is that it gives you a single RSS feed that lists all the feeds you&#8217;ve defined there. I passed this to Pipes, which does some filtering and joining of the individual location feeds into one, and converts the place names and data into yahoo geo-locators. Once a Pipes feed has any Geo-located data, it automatically will map the locations, generating a map of Jamaica with place names as the result.<\/p>\n<p>I like this, because it&#8217;s an example of reusing information and tools from other sites and services to present<br \/>\na completely new service or view.
