Adding YouTube videos, Twitter links, and Spotify links to a map can greatly enhance the user experience and provide additional context to the geographical locations displayed. YouTube videos can offer visual insights or tutorials related to the specific locations on the map, making it more interactive and engaging. Twitter links can showcase real-time updates or user-generated content relevant to the mapped areas, fostering community engagement. Spotify links can add a musical dimension to the map, allowing users to explore and discover local music scenes or cultural influences in different regions. Overall, integrating these multimedia elements can make the map more informative, entertaining, and immersive for users.

Notes

  • If your link isn't appearing as an embed, make sure that the platform you're sharing allows embeds

  • You can add multiple links to the "links" field, but only the first one will be added as an embed

  • If you have a large map, we recommend having only some spots as links and the rest as regular spots
