Show HN: GlobeChat – Chat App on world map

https://globechat.live/
1•siddharthroy12•2h ago
This app is inspired by wplace.

I really liked the idea of drawing on world map, it gives a new fun way to communicate with other people.

So I thought I should make a chat-like app on world map, so that people can discuss things in the context of the location so I made this.

Here is how it works:

1. You log in using your google account (there’s no other way atm)

2. Then you can either click on random button to go to a random chat on the map or click on the map to create a new one.

3. Chats (or should I say threads?) only live for 7 days after that, they will get deleted.

I want to make this platform fun but I'm not sure if this concept will be fun for others.

Currently this website is very basic in terms of functionality but I’m planning to add new features in future.

I'm looking for suggestions and feedback from you guys.
