<p>Sebastian has already pointed to the switch2osm site.</p>
<p>But a general remark: if it was uneconomical for google to
provide such services as their previous price level or for free,
there is no magic wand waving that will make it economical for the
OSMF to do it for free, or even for the commercial providers in
OSMspace. <br>
</p>
<p>As a consequence I would try -not- to argue with costs when
promoting OSM.</p>

<div>One of the aircraft tracking sites I use
<a href="http://aussieadsb.com/VirtualRadar/desktop.html#"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://aussieadsb.com/VirtualRadar/desktop.html#</a> has
mentioned in this last week that they have changed their
background from Google Maps to OSM, as, due to much
increased use of their site while Ex <i>Talisman Sabre</i>
is on, they had passed their allowed limit for use of Google
Maps (28000 / month) & it was now going to cost them
$3000 / month !</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there any established "marketing / advertising" link
to push OSM for similar sites / groups?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>& yes, they have attributed us correctly! :-)</div>
