View Places I want to go to in a larger map   One of the pitfall of neogeography is the fact that anyone now a days can make a mashup of their own map. Meaning, anyone can give out or share their location information through online websites or to anyone in particular. One potential from this is that by sharing different location information online, and by creating different mashups, people around the world can become informed about certain locations in the world. Basically, its potential is that by creating mashups, it informs other people about different locations in the world. However, a consequence from this is that so many people have been creating mashups that even their private locations are being given away to many people in public. Concluding that, anyone can intrude your personal life by knowing where you live, or where you went when posting your location on online websites like facebook.

      The consequences from making mashups or posting location information online can sometimes put danger into someone's life. This is because anyone now a days can put their certain locations online. Therefore, by putting in location information like this, you can either be followed by anyone that you don't know and other people can easily track where exactly you are. Also by writing location information online, "terrorists might use such images to plan attacks" on a certain location, according to the article The World on your desktop. Another consequence or pitfall is that anyone now a days can pretty much make their own maps, meaning that anyone can put any information online without certainty in them. Therefore, giving wrong information to other people as well.
