Scott Brodsky has delivered one killer app, as we say, in an online service. It's called Incidentlog.com.
He has combined data from Shreveport's police department and fire department with Google maps to give viewers a fascinating look at what's happening across town.
"The Shreveport feeds are refreshed hourly," says Brodsky. " Users can also search by street and setup alerts to be notified when events happen on streets they wish to monitor."
What's the origin of this astouding service? Brodsky says "Incidentlog.com was formed in February '05 as a hobby and currently has a database of over one million incidents and has over 50 national feeds continuously updated to a central database. Future additions will include city-based RSS police/fire/911 feeds, and radius-searching. Thanks!"
