WyriMaps is moving to the Google Maps API V3. The picture above shows the first working POC of WyriMaps running on V3. With this version my goal to run (smooth) on mobile devices comes a bit closer. I’m using the full javascript engine rewrite to switch to V3 and make more use of it’s features. Another thing that is going to change is the way URL’s are build up in the link to window. To be backwards compatible rewrite rules will be put in place to redirect the old url’s to the new ones without breaking the old links. Something else changing is the way nodes are loaded from the server. Instead of AJAX calls we are moving to on-demand JavaScript loading. This should further more lower the load on the servers and speedup the site experience. More news is soon to follow (and also screens of the different platforms supported).
