The Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) is using Google Maps to encourage geo-tagged poetry. Poetry iv U allowed users to submit curt poems (140 characters or less) most places inwards Melbourne as well as attach them to a Google Map.
The submitted poems tin shipping away last viewed on the Poetry iv U Google Maps. Currently the site has 2 maps, the Swanston Street verse map as well as the New verse location map (for poems based only about the Melbourne metropolis circle tram route).
This City straightaway doth, similar a garment, wear
The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,
Ships, towers, domes, theatres, as well as temples lie
Open unto the fields, as well as to the sky;
(From Composed Upon Westminster Bridge - William Wordsworth)
The poet Robert Frost said that "All literature begins amongst geography". Poetry Atlas believes that this is truthful as well as too believes that nearly everywhere on Earth, at some point, has had a verse form written most it.
The Poetry Atlas has thus created a Google Map to endeavour as well as geotag every bit many poems every bit they tin shipping away as well as too detect poems for every bit much of the public every bit possible. If y'all know most a verse form that isn't on the map y'all tin shipping away electronic mail it to Poetry Atlas as well as they volition add together it to the map.
