[OSM-talk] Title bars (dynamic updating of)

[OJ W]

that's easy enough to do

It would need to be in rails to go on the main page though, so if any
ruby programmer wants to implement it, I can tell them what needs
doing?  (use the zoom level to choose 3 appropriately-spaced points
around the lat/lon, lookup the placenames at each point (optionally
choosing a language for the placenames), and return a list of
placenames that appear in all 3 points)

You have to make some assumptions about screen size though - 50.5,-0.2
@z11 on a mobile phone might be 'central london', while the same query
on Al Gore's array of monitors might be 'europe'
