Bawię się aplikacją #what3words - za pomocą 3 słów możemy podać lokalizację każdego miejsca na świecie.

#What3Words is a brilliant addressing system, but its key disadvantage is you need a company's permission to use it, which they only grant if you either don't use it very much (maybe?) or you pay them. #Pluscodes, on the other hand, don't have that problem, and one can figure out that 8DC9+A2 is right next to 8DC9+A3.

Why is #what3words reducing it’s free plan usage limit by 90%?

Mooi systeem. Oplossing voor grotere maar ook kleinere problemen, zoals landelijke adressen, campings, festivalterreinen e.d. www.what3words.com Zie https://www.ted.com/talks/chris_sheldrick_a_precise_three_word_address_for_every_place_on_earth?utm_campaign=tedspread&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=tedcomshare #what3words ///voorrem.roest.aanzien

@jonty @tryst Britain is desperately trying to show that they're still relevant. This photo was taken at London Gatwick airport.

(No means unique to the UK: China was, perhaps still is, obsessed with "autonomous intellectual property", perhaps out of fear of the West dictating technical standards) #what3words #innovation #UnitedKingdom #GreatBritain #independentIntellectualProperty #autonomousIntellectualProperty #industrialPolicy

Intrigued that #Randonautica uses #what3words now. #Apophenia #Serendipity #Synchronicity

Encountered a new W3W limitation this weekend: Accented characters.

The person reading me the code knew it wasn't English, but either didn't know the accents mattered or hadn't been given them themselves.

It turns out the website will do fuzzy matching and compensate for that - the mobile app did not.

And (accented characters aside) most of the claimed advantages definitely go away when you have to resort to the phonetic alphabet to pass the details.

I have decided to stop complaining about the numerous flaws of #What3Words since I know when a battle has been lost. (Nervously clutches Betamax VCR)

I just learned about #what3words - a 3-metre square grid system that uses a 3 word address to easily and memorably #communicate precise location information globally. Very helpful for #fieldwork in remote locations and #safety plans. The words are random, but coincidentally, the door to the building where our #wetland #ecology lab is based is at ///indoor.roaming.aquatic !
