A friend of mine has created a mobile app and website which allows people to track and "pin" locations to a map for Christmas displays. I thought this would be a good thing for the members of this site to help get the word out for people to see their displays which we all spend soo much time and hard earned money creating.
He just launched the website and App a few weeks ago and is looking for some help to start populating the map with displays. I dont know which is the best category to post this kind of information.
The website is You are not allowed to view links.

Family and Friends,
This is the time of year that millions of people around the country decorate their homes with Christmas lights and holiday displays. Many people (like me) enjoy taking their families out in the evening to enjoy these lights. Currently there is no easy/good way to find these houses other than simply randomly driving around or by word of mouth.
I recently launched "Trail of Lights", a new MOBILE website designed to be used on your smartphone (iPhone/Android/Blackberry). This website allows users to easily locate houses nearby that have been decorated for the holidays using the GPS built into their phones. By the way, apps for Android and iPhone will be released shortly. Let me know if you are interested in a follow-up email about this.
I need your help! Obviously I cannot drive around the country and find all the good homes and post them to the site. I would really appreciate it if when you are out and about and you find nice looking homes that you would use my site and share them. I am aiming for really nice homes, not homes that have just put up a few strands of lights. We want to share those homes that have actually put in some effort and make it worth everyone's while that will be driving to see them. I do not expect you to go out of your way to do this, but when you go out to view lights yourself, please share!
Also, some cities have large light displays that you often have to pay for to drive through. Feel free to share those as well as not everyone will be familiar with them.
