After being connected to SoundCloud, it could be shown

1. followers and user whom one follows
2. users favourite tracks
3. favourite tracks of followers and/or people whom one follows

If a track title is very long, the whole track-list moves some pixel down.

if i link to dubstep city london i don't want to hear bubblegum trance

katharina is on this one

in the player, there's a share button. when clicked it would pop up twitter or facebook, with a backlink to the track, so http://tracksonamap.com/#track-4332
when clicking that link it would show the map, probably in default 'all' view, with the extra city+track loaded and displayed on it. (to do this we need invidual city and track endpoints) and a track needs the city_id in it as well (to do the city look up based on the track id)

locations should be called on a regular basis to always be in memcache!

the error is on line 237 in the python code, location is mistaking longitude for y, when it's really x, so:

long: x
lat: y

needs to be updated everywhere in the javascripts once fixed in backend

This means clicking on the "next" button and the automatic next when a track is finished playing.

When filtered by genre, a bubble for a city should only show tracks from the city from the filtered genre. currently, all-genre tracks per city are displayed.

load the list of tracks (or better, cities, see bug #24) progressively over ajax, so begin loading 20 cities/tracks, then load next 20, etc. would enable the page to respond fast, and move as it loads more

i would suggest we refactor the backend to separate out cities from tracks, so we could load (or better--progressively load over ajax) a list of say 500 popular cities with their metadata (should be very fast to load because we don't load track data). and then we do one light request per city to get the latest track from it, and then load a larger list after that.
you could even load 500 cities + keys to the 10 latest tracks in them, then it would be one request/track after that to load the track with the correct key

The curent marker size are well justified for the two top zoom levels but if you zoom in the marker should become bigger to make clicking on it easier

sometimes it takes a long time for the dots to appear

this has to happen (mostly for legal/cost reasons), so please add a track[duration] smaller than 20 minutes to the API queries (citysounds is already doing this)

Have a logo displayed and pictures of developers displayed.

Reason is the correct number of tracks per city. If we don't delete, cities grow and grow and every city gets the biggest bubble. We also do not need the old tracks anymore, because they will not appear on the map or genre filter anyway. Limit could be 3 months.

Some people have problems with the playback. I thought, Flash Blocker let all 1px sized Flash elements pass, but i could be mistaken ... needs investigation

It jumpes to the last clicked track but not to the currently playing one ...

Have it like in citysounds, where they also only show the intro once ...

would be similiar to Google Maps iPhone App and display the functionality of the button better ...

Could be interesting when browsing tracks without genre filter ...

Spacebar - Play/Pause current track in player
right arrow/n - play next track

With the current behaviour, a track is stopped and if you press play for the same track again, it starts from the beginning. Better is, if it pauses and resumes from the old position if pressed again. Just like the play/pause button does in the bottom player.

there seems to be certain boundary conditions where the player just stops working (stops updating progress, etc). need to find the root cause of this, either soundmanager2 or a timer or something else

i think it's easy with google maps

If you click on the mini-artwork in the track-list within a bubble, the state of the play-button in the bubble does not change. If a track is playing, it should change from pause to play.

It happens, that we have tracks, that the user has deleted from SoundCloud again. When a track is displayed, we should check, if the track is present. If it is not, we should delete it from the datastore, give the user a notice and/or play the next track.

Either have it really switching to the previous track or remove it.

Since auto-playback on opening a bubble has been disabled, the random method has to be adjusted ...

I propose to have a "Share this City" Button in every bubble

1 weeks => 1 week

need to add an overlay div or something else to protect it from being mouse-draggable

When track is playing, waveform progress and timecode information is only updated when map is dragged ...

At the moment Google Maps sometimes geolocates users that have no city (city = None). Maybe we should filter them in the api, since they are always located in the middle of the country and might confuse people ...

google will love you ....
