The busy team here at MapWith.Us is starting out the New Year right by bringing you a fresh new design! We launched an entirely new look and feel last week.

We wanted to show off our real-time mobile mapping technology and also highlight the growing Business Solutions aspect of our company. Our business partnering capabilities are expanding, with embedded map design/integration services and layered data-set mapping.

Our online map creation toolkit has also been enhanced. A bunch of new features have been rolled out, including:

-    A new photo viewing library using Lytebox (thanks to http://dolem.com/lytebox/)

-    Timelines for map updates

-    Drag and drop tool for map item creation

Check out the new site and let us know what you think!

Next up:

We are moving as fast as we can to bring you more advanced mapping tools and enhancements: user profile customization with widgets, a commenting system, map analytics for businesses, and … the MapWith.Us Facebook App!
