Default New Hostel Mapping Website: seekngogo.com

I just found this interesting site that plots hostels on maps:
http://www.seekngogo.com/



The site still has some bugs, but I think it has potential, especially if they will create country maps showing towns that have hostels in them.

Hi,
I'm actually a member of the team who created seekngogo.com and wanted firstly to say thanks for posting about us on your message boards!

I have noted your idea about being able to browse by country and quickly see which countries have hostels in them, this is something that we'd love to have too so hopefully this should be on the site in the not too distant future! We'll also try to include browsing by city so that you can quickly see on a map which cities have got hostels in them.

Some of the other things we're looking at are to improve the speed of the site (which we're aware is sometimes slow) and also ensuring that pages such as those that you mentioned are included. We're also hoping to have a blog soon to keep you up to date with what's going on!

Thanks again for your comments and taking the time to post, hope to see you soon on the site!
Jonathan

Nice site. Is it Ruby on Rails?

Let me know when the blog is online and I'll add it to my feedreader...
