OpenStreetMap

OSM is far too addicting

Posted by seav on 11 January 2009 in English.

I have a lot of online projects and activities and OSM is getting an inordinately large slice of the pie. Also, whenever I go out, I notice little details that I need to add/update or verify in OSM as soon as I get home. Fixing these details immediately will take up too much time.

As a sort of compromise, I've taken to adding lots of stuff into OpenStreetBugs. I'm making OSB as a sort of to-do list for when I have more leisure time to edit OSM. It's ridiculously easy to add stuff in OSB so it fits my needs appropriately. :-)

Know the feeling.. I thought about doing the OSB, but figured that the minor errors I found was faster to correct myself. But some day, when I run across something I don't know as good, I will use OSB. :)

It is a recognised condition called OCOSMD.
