Spotlight: The Sifter

It’s been a long time since we’ve discussed the sifter – if we’ve ever discussed it here at all.  The seemingly mysterious feature to new users was introduced on our site last summer.  It has turned out to be a fun way to view markers on the map, and it’s usefulness grows as the site itself grows.

The sifter allows you to immediately see every marker posted with a certain icon.  For example, if you want to see all the ice cream places posted in the country, just open the sifter and select “ice cream”.  If there are too many ice cream places, you may have to zoom in, but once you do that they will all come into view, and you won’t have to zoom in any further to find them.

As the number of markers on our site grows (10.5K at the moment), the sifter will become a more powerful tool when there are too many markers to “view all” and too wide a range to search.  The sifter also gives us a quick visual sample of how densely populated with markers an area has become, and where certain icons are being more frequently posted.
