This widget is really very useful.
Wow, I think this widget may even rival touchthesky widget in its usefulness! Thanks!
: It was actually funny but I m glad that you found my work nice : Thanks a lots for giving Travel Mate a chance : Thanks for your feedback and I am glad that you found Travel Mate so useful, keep using Travel Mate
really very nice widget, seems to be usefull
nice widget, liked it !
At times, the photos do not work, and the flights requests do not function. The map is too small to be of any use.
: Repeating my self, Travel Mate uses flickr tagged images for photos feature and I am already working on getting better results. As far as flight results are concerned, currently if any wrong information is provided or not provided then it shows that "Error: Unable to get results..", in the next release I have made a proper validation library(ready to be integrated) for every user input in widget that will also replace all existing validations. And for the map, there are navigation controls available along with zooming features. The map can also be clicked and dragged. I am also considering an option for allowing user to view widget in small and large size but then I am yet not sure about it.
Hi! Great widget! I have a suggestion though, in all Europe and some other places, we count in kilometers and in celsius for the temperature. Could you add an option for switching to this mesurements? I'm afrais otherwise some peple won't understand anything
Hey, looks like a great widget. Have some problems getting flights though. Perhaps there are some limitations, like flights from Europe to the US?
Thinking about it. Why not, rather than find flights, check on existing flights? Will I arrive in time, is my flight on time, are there any known strike or news about my destination. Very interesting if you are travelling to Paris or Rome for instance. Anyways, Flights doesn't work all-together.
: added your valuable suggestions to my next release todo list. Thanks a lot for your feedback. : your suggestion is really cool and I think that there deserves to be another widget for that and as far as I can recall there is. Try searching and I am sure you can find something what u are looking for.
The map and the photos are to small. For an impression of London the photos do not really show what I expected. But it´s a nice and handy widget.
Can you add more destinations, such as Manchester UK? Great widget!
: Thanks for appreciating, if you would click a photo in the list then it opens a bigger size inside the widget itself and as for the map there are zooming/navigation controls to help you use it efficiently. If you wish to see more detailed photos or maps then I will suggest you to use flickr or google maps website directly. The purpose of the widget is to provide quick information to travelers with high performance. : I tried looking for Manchester and guess what it is already there
just great. Thanks a lot, mate...!!
awesome widget! and congrats on winning the competiton too!
