A little something new has been added here that I think everyone will enjoy and find useful. Its called Phoogle Maps. Its a wonderful Google Maps tool that lets you fill in your location for other members to see.

Not only will it help you find other Hydrostream enthusiasts in or near your are but also will be a great tool for people planning to have a get together or rally as they can see what a good central meeting place for members will be.

You can find the Phoogle Maps feature by clicking the Phoogle Maps link at the top of the page.

To display your location and any notes you like here is a quick how to for everyone.

Image
First go to you User control Panel and click the 'Phoogle Maps Profile' tab.

Image
Now in the box enter your city and state where you live (Example - Buffalo, NY). You can also click and drag the little icon to any location you like.

Image
Next make sure you have YES selected as shown in number 1.

Now select your icon you would like to use as shown in number 2.

If you would like to add any notes to your phoogle location you can do so as shown in number 3.

And when your all done just click the Submit button shown in number 4.

Now click the Phoogle Maps link at the top of the page or in the side menu on the left and you can see everyones location.

Best part is, This is completely editable so if you move or anything and need to update your location, want to add notes, or change your little icon you can do so at any time.

I hope everyone finds this fun and useful. If there are any question or anything just ask and someone will be glad to help you.

Good Luck and happy boating. :boating:

Way cool, Thanks

If you click another member it tells you how far away they are. Or I guess I could say how close. :up:

Is there no streams on the left side of the country? It's odd how all are on the east side isn't it.
