About This Script - Uber-style GeoTracker


"WEB 3.0 IS HERE!!! Now that "everyone" (well...80% of adults in the U.S., for instance) has at least one smartphone, we find ourselves able to detect where anyone is at anytime and exchange data/information easily, instanteously and inexpensively, thru the standard GPS technologies built into these devices. Nothing since internet and mobile connectivity, will be able to redefine day to day life as we know it, as this! It's Web 3.0. Uber and Waze have just scratched the surface...just wait and see, it won't take long. Our world is a changin in a major way..."

Everyday as I work, eat, sleep, shop for clothes, shop for food, watch TV/movies, commute, fly, vacation, find dates, go out on dates, etc. (yep! Ninjas date!), I think of yet another new NEXT GENERATION GPS app that will REDEFINES the way we live life today! No other technology will have as big an impact to our daily lives as this. I promise!!!

I wrote my latest script (released July 2017) - Uber-style GeoTracker - as my attempt to show everyone how "accessible" this technology is (e.g. forget iOS and Android...vanilla HTML5/Javascript/PHP/MySQL can be used to create applications that are just as functionally robust as Uber and Waze) and to create a foundational framework to base your next GPS app on.

The technology used here is called 'HTML5 Geolocation' and is built into HTML5 and all the browsers that render webpages on mobile phones, tablets and desktops. Tracking begins when a user brings up a "geolocated/geotracked" webpage and continues until the browser is closed or navigates to a new web page. Tracking restarts (e.g. reusable getlocated webpages) again by bringing up the same webpage.

To use this GeoTracker, simply go to the home page and invite everyone you want tracked in a your own private geomap. Check your inbox for your link, click on it an geotracking begins. This tool allows you to customize your market or upload a phone as a marker.

Check it out! Hope this script helps you get a jumpstart in changing the world!
