I found the link a very helpful and handy link. I can see it being useful in the future for sending someone a detailed individual map, say if they where looking for buried treasure. In the future i think this technology will be improved more and more so customized maps will be a far more prominent thing in tourism agencies and the like. I think this is a very good example of convergent technology.
Here is a google map of where i grew up, done to my own specifications. Its a little different to other maps of the Byron Shire that i have seen ...

The Sketchcast website is probably one of the most useless websites i have ever signed up too, however it was a very cheap laugh and i still signed up. I dont think it is the type of technology that will catch on in the future. This is evdient due to the dates of peoples posts all within a very short period of time with each other giving evidence that it is just a fad. However i think the actual creation and putting together of such a project is pretty neat and it has been quite well made.
