We were quite busy these days because we have been working hard to introduce to GPSed users a new functionality - sharing GPS tracks with friends in online communities like Facebook™, MySpace™, Twitter™ and others. This functionality will be released next week.

Now we want to introduce you another wishful feature - an ability to share your private tracks with your friends and family without making it public! To share your private track please open it and find a small icon in “Opened Tracks” list:

Clicking this icon will open “Link to this Track” dialog. You can use secret URL from this dialog for sharing your private track with friends via IM, E-mail or Social Networks. If you want to make previously generated URL inaccessible just generate a new one by pressing “Generate new URL” button.

Hope you will enjoy this new feature. We appreciate your comments and feedback.

We have added voting to GPSed Blog to make GPSed service better. You can find it on the right bar of the blog’s home page.

We will change questions periodically to understand needs of our users wider.

Let’s improve GPSed together, vote now!
