Geolocation Map for Members (With New Map Link)

I brought up the idea before, but is there any way to add a member search feature on this forum, where you can enter your own zip code and a radius and get results of members in your area? Either that, or just a search option that looks at the location on everyone's profile page. I really would love to collaborate with other members on the cape.

I set up a new Geolocation map for 405th users. The Editing password is "405".
At the bottom of the page there is a help section labeled "detailed help" to help you make your mark on the map. Only people who are willing to post their Usernames post. No anonymous!

Also to add your pin, go down to the bottom right hand side of the map where it says Add extra pin to this map. DO NOT DELETE OTHER PEOPLES PINS!

There is a limit of '2' pin postings on this free version.

My bad, I'll try to find another one right now that supports more pins!
Sry that map only supports 2 pins! Instead use this one!!!!

It's a little harder to use, but it supports way more pins!

Use these pre-made instructions!
To make the process easier, I’ve created generic instructions for you to use in the last part, where you explain to the team members about the map.
Copy the section below, customize the part surrounded by angle brackets and paste it into the message box (shown in the 6th step above).
I’ve created a custom Google map for all of us to put our location on. Please click the above URL and follow these steps to add yourself to the map:
1.Use the search box to locate your city, state, and country.
2.On the marker that appears, you’ll see a link that says ’Save to My Maps‘ within the bubble.
3.Click the link and select the <write here the name of the shared map>.
4.Put your name as the title for the marker, and within the bubble provide whatever info you’d like.

Added myself.
Also I'll rework the instructions since it references an image or two that weren't included and some information that isn't really relevant to our map.
I'll edit into the first post when it's all set.
Also, is it necessary to sign into/ have a Google account to use it? I was already in mine so it didn't matter but that may be a flag to people who don't have one.

Seems to be quite few. But have added none the less. Would be interesting to see how global it is!
