MAPCHESTER
MapChester is a collaborative 'wikimap' project, generated and 
maintained by users in the same way as Wikipedia. On 13th and 14th May 
join us as we map Manchester in a weekend using GPS (Global Positioning 
System) devices, which monitor signals from satellites to record 
location. When bands like the Happy Mondays stalked the Hacienda, 
Manchester was dubbed Madchester; now, a new generation of phreaks are 
in town, renaming the city Mapchester, showing that it isnt just music 
that puts the city on the map. Register in advance to participate,
