Hypermap Progress V3 – Redesign

The internet has so much information however instead of liberating people to make better decisions many people just feel overwhelmed.

I have written on this blog in the past about how important I believe it is that people have the ability to make important decisions . This is what has been the motivating force behind Hypermap.

I first started working on this back in 2015. 

After a few aborted attempts, jobs, Antstand I am finnally getting back to work on this.

A Hypermap allows creators to add a curated list of websites to their content as you would add an embed-able youtube video. Once the Hypermap  is created it can be viewed and shared by anyone and anyone can also add their own information and remove unwanted information by creating their own layer over the Hypermap.

See the new working Hypermap below. Embed by pushing the share button and using embed code.

and this one -featuring content filters and a fullscreen icon

PROGRESS SO FAR………….

Completed

  • Modern redesign
  • Works on web and iphone 6
  • Interactive drilldown
  • Embed-able and shareable

Still Outstanding

  • User created content
  • Creation of user layers
  • Data visulaisation
  • Central portal for all Hypermaps
  • Make contents in iframe responsive

If you like the look of this Hypermap and see where this could lead and would like to be a part of this then please contact me through the contact page

I’m in Koh lanta

Special thanks to Duncan

Whilst I was in the UK having a beer with Duncan he mentioned he enjoyed my posts so after sprucing up this site I thought I should write one – so here it is.


On the way back from my trip to the UK I decided to stay in Thailand for a bit. I had 1 week in Bangkok (which I found rather hard to get around) and spent the last week in Koh Lanta. Koh lanta is a lovely place that is not that busy (not like Phuket) but very beautiful. Although I have seen a lot because I have spent most of my time working in this coworking space called Kohub

Kohub is my favourite coworking space they have a lovely outdoor area, a waterfall, pol table , fast internet and I can order meals online and the kitchen check my photo on my profile, find me and arrive at my desk with my meal.

They have yoga mats too but haven’t yet used them yet.

Snorkeling

For my first touristy activity I went snorkelling on Sunday out in nearby Islands of Koh Haa, Koh Bida and Ko Rok – $50 well spent. below are some of things I saw. I saw a sea snake slithering along the bottom (below) – watched it for a while but decided not to play with it.

FUN FACT: snorkerled/snorkeling is American English; snorkelled/snorkelling is the spelling in British English.



Next Movements

I’ve been very productive since Koh Lantra – found being somewhere inspiring is good for my productivity. I have knocked over a lot of tasks that I did not enjoy this week. One of those jobs is overhauling this website which I like now.

Still figuring things out but what will help me get more time is keeping costs low whilst improving fitness and having fun at the same time. In this aim I have been looking into making my own breakfast. As I am trying to get in a routine that works and enables a low cost, nutritious low carb start to the day.

Cooking in a hotel

One problem I have is a lack of a kitchen. Saw this video which made me chuckle – very ingenious – not sure if I’ll be doing it though!
