Adding more than 10 locations to the map

Hi there it looks like currently we are limited to only adding 10 locations to the gps part. Is there a way to add more? even better i'd like to the app to read gps locations from a database. Does anybody know how to do this?

Yes. Become an early adopter and build your app using version 1.5 You can load from a database. Lots of extra features too.

a) Create a new app, choose v1.5 from the New App screen. This won't show if you are not on the Early Adopter list (you are) b) In your v1.5 app, create a location map screen. c) In your location map screen's advanced settings, see the Data URL. Use this to point to your text file full of locations.

I've been using this site for 12 hrs and I'm absolutely loving it. You guys are the best. Here is another question. I am trying to create an app that locates nearby users. So i've got a list of predefined locations in the google map and now when two users are say within 10 km or whatever number of one another they can show up on the map. Is there a way to do this? I believe i can use the device lat and long to show my own current position on the map but how can i also show others who are close to me?
