Maptastica has already been used internally by the Guardian to create a 'live music map' of crowdsourced photos and reviews from gigs, and by the n0tice team for a project around high streets. The n0tice platform allows users to create online noticeboards of events and other information, and is being used by hyperlocals and news sites. Those who want to create a map with Maptastica need to first create a noticeboard on n0tice and then enter the URL of that board into the free wizard tool. The map can then be customized and embedded on a Web page.
