[APP][3.1+] Live location based messaging board

This app allows you to post messages to your location/any location that you decide to "travel" to on the world map. The map/list will update automatically when something new is said - acting in a similar way that public chat in an MMORPG would be, except in the real world.
There is no need to register, your anonymity is to your discretion.
