What is Worldmappin?
Worldmappin is a map where any blogger on Hive can pin his posts, which is currently used by almost all travel bloggers on Hive.
Worldmappin is the re-birth of Pinmapple which was stopped by the former management by end of May / mid June 2024. We agreed with the former management to take over the project with a mainly new and partly old team.

We will develop the project further, add new functions for communities, add topics, and other features for all the people on Hive.
The plan
For the first few weeks, we will ensure all is running smoothly with the new brand.
In the second phase, we will maintain the system and plan new features. In the third phase, we will develop all the new ideas for the project
> For all these activities we will come up with a proposal
Phase 1 - Transfer
All the new infrastructure need to be created. The servers, domains and subdomains and other licences for the server need to get bought and oragnised. The existing code need to be checked, partly updated and transfered to new servers and their backup machines.
All this infrastructure need to be tested and managed and some security management by our operation team and the monitoring tools need to be activated and as well tested.
We will start with the curation for the community. Therefore we will grow the @worldmappin account by the help of the community with some more delegation to grow the voting power for quality posts
Phase 2 - Maintain
We will make sure all works fine and the curation team will grow to a group of people who have to manage all the post and quality checks.
The community on Discord will get some more activities, features, structure, and continuous information.
Phase 3 - Develop
We will bring the @worldmappin service to a new level. We like to add more functionality, and support for communities and other groups or topics. During the first two phases, we will collect even more ideas, extend the development team and start to deploy more and more features.
A small mobile Worldmappin App is on our radar to even have "mappin" more easy.
A bit of history
Back in August 2017, the first version of Pinmapple started @detlev was one of the first 10 users to add a Pin to his post, Since then we had more than 100000 pins from many Hive users added to the database. When I heard the project would be stopped, my decision took only a second to ensure it would survive.
The new Team
The project starts with a fresh team of Hivians.
Until today we have to folling people with the project
- Curation @lizanomadsoul (lead) @ybanezkim26 and some more...
- Community @lizanomadsoul @godfish and others
- Communication / Moderation @louis88 @godfish @rivalzzz and others
- Graphic Design @louis88 &...
- Development @masterswatch (and brothers) & @louis88 (as bug-hunter)
- Operation Team around @detlev
- Management @detlev
Thanks to the old team
Special thanks to @martibis who created the project way back in 2017 and was running it until May 2024. As well @livinguktaiwan has to be mention here for all her work with the project. The same goes to @choogirl for her great work.

Pinmapple was such a good project that it couldn't just disappear. We will continue to fill the Worldmapping with pins!!
So cool to see @detlev and others step up to the plate and continue to iterate this very useful project. I'm off on a European tour in a few weeks and will definitely have fun updating the new @worldmappin interface.
Delegation incoming.
We have a talk about Worldmsppin at the next #HiveMeetupAachen at 28/29 of June in Aachen. If you are close to Aachen feel free to join
I would have liked to be there but my trip starts on 2nd July and the schedule is pretty packed already. I'll be on tour for 2 months and hope to swing by your area on the return leg of the trip.
👍🏼
Let me know when you are planing to be in my area.
!BEER
Adding some delegation. A lot of our drone group members like to tag the pinmapple account for their drone posts. A great way to support both communities. Many thanks to the folks that have run it for so long, and the ones taking over.
K
As @detlev is flying as well a drone we have even more in common.
Thanks for your delegation
Drones And Beer! Don't forget the beer! lol
!BEER
I'm so glad there is a team to pick up this project and bring it to a new level.
I don't know if you, @worldmappin, create a curation trail so I can register this trail.
We will and we will inform you how to join
Thanks!
@Pinmaple is dead, long live @worldmappin
All the best to the @worldmappin team!
