A lot of people have been asking us when we’ll make the “premium pins” available on Pin in the Map.
Well, we hit a snag. We’ve noticed on the web that various adverts have started appearing for sponsored links on Google’s map site.
What we don’t want to do is sell a “no adverts” product, and then have Google come along and plaster adverts over it without us being able to do anything about it.
We contacted Google about this a little while ago, but no response has emerged from the Googleplex just yet.
We may just go ahead and release a product anyway, with a big disclaimer on the adverts thing. We’re thinking of doing a monthly payment option in any case, so that people who care about this can simply cancel and will only have lost a very small amount of cash (premium pins are likely to be a very small amount per month).
If you’re interested in the whole premium pin thing, check out this page and send us your email address so that we can let you know of updates.

“We’ve got to have a blog.”
“Why? Give me a good reason.”
“Every cool Web2.0 company has one.”
“Not a good reason.”
“But I want our website to have a cool ‘blog’ link on it like everyone else’s!”
“You know what’ll happen. If we write a blog, it’ll suck.”
“But how will people find out about what Eden’s up to?”
“Nobody cares what we’re up to. Be honest.”
“But what about Pin in the Map?”
“Ok, alright. People might want to know about Pin in the Map. I’ll get around to it.”
—not an actual transcript from the Eden Towers virtual water cooler
So we’ve started a blog, mostly for people to be able to subscribe to get updates on our web services.
Check back here for the latest and greatest Eden Developments (geddit?). I’m sure we’ll be writing about Pin in the Map, along with other projects we’re involved with that you might find interesting. There’ll even be a tutorial up here on occasion, if you’re lucky.
The typo installation is a bit of an experiment, so apologies if various roadwork style artifacts appear occasionally. We’ll get there.
