Map McIntosh is an interactive, personalized map that anyone can use to add points on with comments, pictures, whatever you want. Think Wikipedia with a map function. The map is based on Google's map functions, so we're not putting out there anything that Google hasn't already posted online about the town. You have control of the content you add.
What the heck can this be used for? Proud of a structure in the historic district? Then why not add those historic register points to the map, drop in a picture and a couple of lines about the history of the place that no one in town realizes?
