Car PC Network - The W3bMa5t3r's New Site For YOU all

Car PC Network

Since I'm currently hosting numerous projects for individuals in the carpc realm, I decided to actually build a site, devote to just that, providing 'organized' hosting for these individuals, who create projects. You'll be given your own subdomain (i.e. w3bma5t3r.carpcnet.com ), personalized email for that account, and ftp access to your subdomain to control your own project's webpage/site. The site also has a dynamic, database driven project manager, to let others know what projects you have and are working on. You'll have you own secure login and admin area to manage this feature. If you already have your own site, you are still more than welcome to create a site here as well, because it won't hurt to increase your userbase either ;)

To check out what is up so far, drop on by, @ http://carpcnet.com - CarPCNet

I hope to see those of you with projects take us up on this opportunity to spread the word and userbase for your project. Thanks for your time and for helping out our community.

W3bTracker - GPS Tracking From the W3bMa5t3r

Ok, well all know about GPS tracking and we all want it, but it seems like every time someone brings out a system, it lasts for a few months and they disappear and or just quit supporting the project. So with all the frustration gathering, I took it upon my self in probably my first really big coding project and came up with my own GPS Tracking system, utilizing a client and server. The application is highly configurable and the web pages are secured with logins required. To receive a GPS tracking account all that is required is that you register with this site (http://w3btracker.com) and request the service.

The server will be here http://w3btracker.com

The demo/sample page is here http://w3btracker.com

------------------------ HOW DO I GET AN ACCOUNT? ------------------------

Register with GoogleMaps and get a Gmap API KEY - HERE. Your website url to give GoogleMaps will be:
http://w3btracker.com/view.php
Register with W3bTracker.com. Include the Gmap API KEY you received from GoogleMaps.
Once registered, send a message to the staff of W3bTracker.com to requesting a W3bTracker User ID (UID).
You will NOT be able to view your route until you have a valid UID.

Ability to upload log to server, from the website, has now been added. A change in the datalog code was required, so this only works with the version 2.1.0.7 and newer of W3bTracker.

July 4, 2007

2.1.0.4 Has been uploaded.
Using this version, your SERVER URL is

http://w3btracker.com/tracker.php

The errors mentioned in the mp3car forums should be fixed, and the data transmission to the server should be faster and more reliable.

Do NOT use the new tracker url for older versions, or vice versa. IT WON'T work. Nuf Said. lol.

Enjoy and always... let me know how it works, good or bad.

Cheers, and Happy 4th.

November 2006 Monthly Car Meet

We had a great turn out today at Tysons Corner in front of the AMC Theaters, seems every other month has a good turn out. :) Thanks to all who came out and made this a success. There were some great carpc installs, installs in progress and even worked out a few problems folks had with their computers/setups. The location was a little rough because of the Christmas shoppers, but after 35-40 min and pretty sure most everyone was there, we moved over to the parking garage by Macys where there was plenty of room for us :) We got alot of pics which should be posted in the photo galleries before too long. Thanks again to everyone who came out and for those who didn't, we hope to see you at the next.

Cheers, Steve aka W3bMa5t3r

P.S. If you have pics to add to the galleries, the easiest way is to just zip them up and email them to me (email address in the member list to the left). I can then dump them in to the meet folder and have the website/script auto add and resize them :) Cheers
