gps service? checked!

Well kind of. Last summer I did a road trip to newfoundland (canada) with a laptop, a gps and a webcam onboard [1]. The idea was to have people (friends and family) to follow our trip through a website to which I pushed webcam frames and gps coordinate in real time using websocket (socket.io) over my smarthphone. It was fun!
