Trucker Tracker In Beta - Try It Out!

Great idea but having a devil of a time on my iPhone. I'm not even sure if I showed up on the map but I will check in again later to see. Ironically I was just asking salty dog if we were parked next to each other at LAX. Turns out we were not and today I am in Memphis and headed to Boston tomorrow. Great idea Brett maybe I can meet some of these great truckers while traveling about. A chance to meet some friendly faces in the wilderness of truck stops.

I'm stuck in Reserve, LA. Freight is slow for us down here and I knew when I saw I was heading down here I'd be sitting a little bit. Only been 20 hours so far, only my 2nd time sitting longer than 11-12 hours waiting for a load assignment.

On the issue of the name for the app we should call it... "Beacons of Truth Tracker." lol.

I was right down US 61 about 10 miles from you. I was in Norco by the Shell/ Motiva refinery. I assume you are at the Schneider OC?

Yep. Will be heading out tomorrow at noon.

Ok so I checked Gain this morning and I am still not listed. The names and numbers on the right stop at 26. Is this the max allowed at this time? I tried manually entering my location from my iPhone both last night And today to no avail. I really dig the concept and would love to be added. Any thoughts on what I could be doing wrong? Thanks

I am still not listed.

You're listed. Looks like you're in West Memphis. If it still isn't showing you on your phone it's because your phone is caching (storing) the results instead of updating them. That's really common with mobile devices. Try refreshing the page a couple of times and see if it will show up. If not, you'll probably have to clear your browser cache.

Cool App Brett. Tried it on an HP laptop with Windows 8 (which I DON'T like) and running IE 10 as a browser. Worked great using a guest WiFi connection.

Now if you could just tell me how I can get my avatar working I'd be all set. I cut and pasted the address (location) of a small JPEG I keep on my desktop into the location spot on my profile but it didn't take. I was going to just go back to using the default icon, but that location is gone so Animal has no avi, so Animal is sad - other than the fact this site is totally cool! I would have just e-mailed you via help, but this new laptop is giving me fits trying to set everything up to be able to float the Windows 8 gears. Won't be home to tinker with it in depth for a couple weeks so if you could help so I can have an avi, (even the default back) that would be awesome, as I have figured out how to get this [expletive deleted LOL] new laptop to connect to WiFi during downtime OTR , but I won't be able to see my tech guru (Mrs. Animal) for a couple more weeks. Mean time I'd like to have an avi when I visit. Again, awesome site and great App.

BTW. Possible name: "What's your 20". Driver Dots is funny, got a good chuckle out of it. Kudos on the clever Star. Thanks.

Animal, I think the avatar on this site is like many sites on the net. You need to upload your picture to a hosting site like photobucket first. Then you can get an address for the picture on photobucket. That is the address you need to put in for the location in your profile.

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks Woody and Brett (Brett I saw your reset me). Between the two of you I was able to get it done. Animal is VERY happy! What?! I AM smiling. LOL. Thanks again.

Brett,

Cleared & re-freshed my browser, shows me down near Austin TX when I am in fact @ the Petro in Amarillo TX. By the way, I am using IE9. Tried using Chrome, had to manually tell it where I am.

GREAT avatar

So I see a map and numbers. Where are these avatars you speak of?

Was speaking of his avatar in the forum.
