Checkins
When is it a checkin (with a note) and when is it a note (with a location)? Hot topic. I differentiate them for display purposes (currently I just show a map-marker icon next to checkins, but I'm also going to want to show them on a map and stuff).
For now, my rule is:
- If a post has a
locationproperty, which should be a URL of a place (venue/city/country/vague), it's a checkin.- A checkin may have a
latitudeandlongitude(my vague checkins, eg. 'home', do not). - A checkin may have
content.
- A checkin may have a
- If a post has a
latitudeandlongitudeand nolocation, it's a note with a location.- A note should have content.
My inner semantic pedant is unhappy with attaching a lat and lon to a post directly, so I might rethink this at some point.
