I'm happy to announce the availability of a new shaded relief hiking map of Edgewood County Park and Nature Preserve, using the BitPass micropayment system, on VirtualParks.org. The map actually went up about a month ago but has been refined several times since and is ready for public use. The map features shaded relief, topo lines, trail mileages and milepost locations. It shows where the powerlines are, bench locations, as well as informational kiosks. I've set up a BitPass "promotion" for this map; the first 1000 buyers between now and May 1st can send an email to friends with a link to the content and their friends get to access the map for free. (I don't quite get how a buyer sees the option to send that special link, but perhaps that's because I'm the creator of the content and promotion. If you buy the map, let me know if you see a promote link). I would have set the number of buyers to something less than 1000 but BitPass doesn't seem to allow you to do that. Hence the short timeframe. 7:46:14 AM
