Wikiloc has moved to the Scientific Parc in Girona. I'm excited to be in this location with plenty of space, nice views and all kind of IT facilities. 
The mountains on the background are one of our favourite spots for hiking and mountain biking with many options to ride after work :)
If you're in the area drop me an email!
Oh! and the carpets on the floor with the Wikiloc logo are hand made by Montse. Thanks Montse! :)
Stay tuned, more news are coming!

I could say many things about the Geonames.org web services and all good.
If you are doing something 'geo' I highly recommend you to take a look at what Marc Wick offers you in geonames.org
The only thing that could be improved in the free web services is the response time. Wikiloc relies heavily in geonames so it was time to switch to the commercial version, speed up wikiloc and at the same time collaborate in keeping the initiative lead by Marc in good health.
So from now on when you look for a place name in Wikiloc.com, you'll get results much faster.
Enjoy!
Last month Wikiloc reached the magic number of 1 million page views per month.
I am very honoured by all of you that visit Wikiloc and contribute to the community uploading your tracks.
Thanks guys!
The trails from Wikiloc have been added to Google Earth! See post in official Google Blog
Now the millions of users of Google Earth can watch your trails just by clicking on the Wikiloc icon in the Gallery on the left menu (picture below). You can also use Google Earth to explore the more than 110.000 trails from Wikiloc.
Fig. Google Earth's screenshot showing how to activate Wikiloc layer (click for a larger view)
If you still don't have Google Earth, you may download it for free here
BTW: Please expect a delay of a week or so until the trails you upload in Wikiloc's website appear in Google Earth
Enjoy!
Thanks to André, Arion and Larry Wikiloc is available in Deutsch, Greek and Ukrainian! and more translations are coming soon.
Btw:please apologize to those of you that didn't get the sign up confirmation email during the last few days. I'm working with the ISP to ensure that this won't occur again.
Thanks!
I've just released a new feature in Wikiloc that allows you to visualize trails in 3D without leaving the browser. The following screenshot speaks by itself:
Obviously the great news is that it is a 3D view of a GPS trail within the browser
If you want to give it a try you may do so by clicking on the "Earth" button (red circle at the top of the screenshot) while viewing a GPS route and GE will appear embedded in the map window. For me it's a dream come true.
Btw: if you use Linux or simply prefer to visualize the GPS tracks with Google Earth, you still have the handy link "View in Google Earth" (red circle on the right side of the screenshot) to get the KML file.
Enjoy! :)
It's an honour for Wikiloc to appear featured in this Spring's edition of "Natural de Aragon" magazine (edited by the Spanish Environment Department of Gobierno de Aragon). 
Aragon is a beautiful region of Spain near the highest mountains in the Pirinees with many good options to do outdoor activities in the region surrounded of gorgeous landscapes.
