Wikiriders brings us collaborative surf maps

Anyone who appreciates surfing waves and the internet ought to be a fan of Wikiriders, a European site that combines wiki technology and google maps to create a collaborative, interactive map of surfing information.  Similar to Wannasurf, anyone can post a surf spot, surf shop, shaper, etc to the Wikiriders map, which is then edited by a group of moderators that Wikiriders designates.  And they say

" We will make sure to have no secret spot revealed."

Huh? 

A sandwich with nothing tasty between the bread is not a tasty sandwich.  It will be interesting to see how tasty of a wave map Wikiriders can make. 

Still, throw ‘em a shaka for bringing the bread.
