If you don’t know what openstreetmap is, it is a collaborative project to create a map of the world. I’m a contributor in my spare time, and I like adding new places, roads and the like. Think of it as wikipedia, but for a map of the world.
Sometimes I get a bit carried away and it gets late. There is always more to map, so the work is never done. That’s why I need to make projects and finish them one by one to feel like I’m making progress. It’s very rewarding to resolve notes that other people have left, because that means that I helped someone, and that makes me happy :)
I am staying up later than usually. How about you?
That’s funny cuz my sleep schedule is kinda shit right now. It’s currently midnight, and i woke up about an hour ago.
What’s causing you to stay up late?
I’m editing openstreetmap
Wait what? What do you mean by editing openstreetmap?

Oh, i know opeenstreetmap, but I didn’t know it was like a Wikipedia for maps. That’s lit. I think I’ve found a new hobby haha.
So why is editing maps keeping you up so late. Do you have a passion for geography or just feel obligated to contribute?
