I've been thinking. Wouldn't it be good to have a map, similar to Ombey's maps or Dotlan maps, which you could update with intel on the specific systems?
Perhaps an out of game website that you can alt-tab between.
The map would be interactive: You would click one of the systems and a text box would come up allowing you to write intel.
Eg. I'm sitting cloaked in a system, I see 2 neutrals come in and set up a small gate camp. I open the map up, click on the system i'm in and write down the intel (the map automatically puts the date and time alongside)
My friend is going to come through this system. He checks his map and sees there is a gate camp...or maybe he goes through and discovers the gate camp is gone - in this case he would update the map again.
Obvoiusly the maps would be limited to alliance or coalition use, maybe API protected or password protected.
I wouldnt know where to start making something like this but i can't imagine it would be too tricky.
What do you guys think?

this actually sounds like a good idea, and i wish they would implement something like this in game. get rid of local, and watch a map instead. make sure that it only reaches 1-2 constellations away, so as not to have easy spy management.

I was thinking more of an out of game tool but now that you mention it, ingame would be useful. Perhaps to the entity that controls a specific constellation.

I think this sounds great. A good way to get out a message like that or a "huge cap fight here" or a "trap here". |

Ambulation might have this feature you're looking for. There was a thread (over a year ago) asking for player input on an interactive map in ambulation (can't find it any more).
In one of the ambulation trailers there is even a map room showing.
But who knows if it will or will not be implemented. Would be cool, though.

lol its kinda good.
kinda like google earth with shared pushpins with intel on them.
would be easy way to share intel until that intel fell into the wrong hands :D
