Well today's the big launch day for BTC mapper, an app we coded at work that allows people easily and quickly to add points of interest to the OSM database from their BlackBerry or Android phones.

The launch is being held at the Hilton Hotel in Sydney with general and tech media writers present, so far reviews of the app has been quite positive, however the big benefit will be giving OSM much greater mind share with people that would normally only be exposed to commercial map offerings.

Another aspect to this app is to do an Australian version of FixMyStreet using OSM data as the base layer, we've called it www.TidyMyStreet.com and so far at least 2 councils have been introduced to the site from people on the talk-au list.

Hopefully later this afternoon I'll be able to report on how the launch went and even some sound bytes from the people present.
