Yesterday the @internetarchiveeurope opened its new headquarters, in Amsterdam.

To celebrate this historical milestone, together with @brewsterkahle we officially added the Internet Archive Europe on OpenStreetMap 🎉

A new era begins! 🚀

Thanks @yawnbox for the video 🌻

Vous souhaitez rejoindre une vélorution ou un autre groupe de cycliste mais vous ne savez pas où est le peloton ?

Il existe une application open source et cross-platform nommée CriticalMaps pour ça : https://www.criticalmaps.net/

Cela peut-être utile pour ce dimanche 🚲🚲🚲

A screenshot of www.criticalmaps.net. It shows the app on a mock phone with the following description: "Critical Maps, an open source Android and iOS App to organise the monthly critical mass movement around the world." and a few download buttons

Chatting in the dining car, I got two know two young men who were going to watch Eurobasket. Thanks to Wikimania 2010 and 2024, I knew their hometown Gdansk and I could even recommend a good restaurant in #Katowice.

One of them was a national champion in fencing! (I duly took a picture for Wikimedia Commons.)

I never heard of #Eurobasket before, but for the rest of the month I kept seeing news about it (usually I'm just blind to sports news, I guess).

This was a very satisfactory train trip.

Shoutout to my favourite #OsmAnd feature at the end of a long day in a new city: the option to display tram routes prominently on the map. When I've had enough walking, I just pick the longest and most circular-looking tram routes and ride the trams in circles until I've seen enough or I feel inspired to hop off and visit some random spot near the tracks. Usually, tram tracks are where they are for a good reason.

Bonjour, suite à une discussion avec un membre du conseil municipal de ma commune, j'ai proposé de faire une petite présentation/initiation à Open Street Map auprès des élus. J'ai malheureusement pas beaucoup de temps libre pour m'ateler à la préparation de la présentation. Quelqu'un aurait des ressources, une présentation sous le coude qui pourrait me servir de base ? Merci d'avance pour vos contributions ! #osm #OpenStreetMap
