Businesses are only one application, I'm not sure what 3rd party sites are using OSM IDs but Flickr and osmfuel.org are 2 that I know of and every time some new use for OSM IDs occur people always seem to comment about why it's such a bad idea to use OSM IDs, I'm trying to come up with a better suggestion. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
