Geomsg

Geolocated audio/video messages.

This demo is designed as a base on which you can build web apps for geolocated messaging.

It contains:

• Sets page background to a Google map for the current location.
• Button for recording a new message.
• List of recorded messages.

It does not:

• Persist any data except the last recorded GPS coordinates, stored in localStorage.
• Send any data anywhere.

You could:

• ↔️ Add support for p2p messaging with Web-RTC
• 🌏 Only show messages within a geo-boundary
• 🗣 Add support for accounts with social media services
• 👻 Make a Sherlock Holmes geolocated mystery story
• ⭕️ Make an audio/video version of 紀念章, the rubber stamps for collectors

It was tested on:

• Firefox on iOS, to test recording of video with audio through file inputs.
• That's it for now. Android should be ok since we can actually use getUserMedia.
• Desktop browsers, at least on Mac, didn't appear to support webcam/mic input through file input fields.
