MapSkip makes the world a canvas for our stories and photos. It is an ancient human instinct to share our life stories with others, as the paintings and hand prints in stone-age caves show. And many of our stories are about places. Where we fell in love, had the dream vacation, took that great picture or, well, joined the rebellion. And then there are the many other places that anchor our lives - where we live, eat, work and have fun.

Great ways to interact with real photos in Google Maps. NIce things to incorporate into service learning projects or standalone service learning. Exciting and fun stuff!!
