[OSM-talk] How best to create a "single point of interest" online map with OSM data?

[Jóhannes Birgir Jensson]

I'm using leaflet in this 5.000 POI map to show the distribution of 
estates in Iceland

http://osm.hlidskjalf.is/map-estates.php#7/64.767/-18.666

It seems adequate although zooming slows a bit down, each node is 
clickable but at the moment only contains the name.
