For those of you who don't know me, my name is Iain. In July 2012, I had my first smartphone and was looking for a free satnav application. I downloaded Waze and found many mistakes, so I started editing the map. From those beginnings, in 4½ years, I have progressed to being the all-time top editor ...

Mon Oct 11, 2021 9:40 pm Farewell from Iainhouse Mon Oct 11, 2021 9:40 pm Farewell from Iainhouse
I’ve made lots of long posts in the past. This is one of the worst I’ve ever had to make, but I hope it can, in some ways, be one of the best as well. I have so much to say, one post isn’t going to do it all. To start it off, I have to start with the worst news possible. I am dying . I have terminal...

That was the bad post. Now I’d like to say something about who I’ve been and what Waze has meant to me. Back in 2012, I had my first smartphone. I was due to go on holiday in a few weeks and I was looking for a free satnav app. There was this Waze thing available. The “you can edit the maps” seemed ...

Dear Community Members, Over the last 12 years, we have built something truly special together. Where else, besides Waze, would users, volunteers, employees, partners, and public officials all work together, on one platform, for the common good?

So is there a future? Yes there is. My direct participation in it will soon be over. But I leave a legacy of my own and one that I know that those who come after me can build upon. Not for the memory of Iainhouse, but for the future of your extraordinary selves and the community we are all part of....

Here's my script which adds color highlighting to segments and landmarks according to their status and type.
