Hello OSMers<br>
<br>
I have a new business called <a href="www.mapisart.com">MapIsArt.com</a>
which uses osm data to create beautiful personalized map gifts and
home décor. The customer creates their map online, sends us the
order, and we ship it in a week. <br>
<br>

<br>
The commercial applications of using osm data are extraordinary, and
potentially a source of revenue for osm. We just launched
mapisart.com last month, and we would like to be in a position to
support OSM financially within the year. We are increasing osm
awareness by telling everyone we meet about osm and pointing folks
to it in our product inserts and <a
href="http://mapisart.com/blogs/blog/16778655-ptolemys-map-and-the-importance-of-accuracy">online</a>.
People that don't know about the site are stunned, and excited, that
it exists, and we have found there's a lot of people that don't know
about osm (pretty much everyone I've spoken to).<br>
