Review: mapa-swiata.pl

Hi all

My page is related to Education - Geography.

Please review the layout and usability. Is it obvious for user tha map is draggable? Or should I make some tip saying that user can drag map by mouse.

My website is in polish domain, but it is translated (most of the content) for different languages. I want to know if language is properly detected on the first visit. Let me know if language is initialy set to different language that the one set on your system.

Thanks for any comments. Address: http://mapa-swiata.pl/.

Hmm, it's slow for the first time, when the map is not loaded. Also, I'm still working on using browser cache capabilities more efficiently.

The concept:

Did you run the test?

There are some buttons on the bottom bar. The first one is for starting new test. Select the continent (eg Europe), select objects category (eg countries) and click 'Start the test' button to start the new test of the knowledge of location of European countries on the world map.

Currently On my website you can test your knowledge of map of the world, ie knowledge of location of most important places on the map.

I plan to add additional functionality in the future. Currently I am focused on adding new objects to test (lakes, rivers, deserts and so on).

I think the concept is quite great as it will help many students and geographical people to learn the names of the countries.
Just a suggestion, try adding an option to change to satellite map as well as it might look good. Since it is plain white area.

But overall, I love your site!

Thanks for comment.

I think that adding satellite map won't help users to test their knowledge and/or learn something new (this is the main goal of my webiste, testing and learning). Additional layers, informations, colours and so on would make it harder to run tests. This website is not an alternative to Google Maps
