  1. Here's a question for my fellow map nerds. For keeping bookmarks, I use Raindrop.io. I really like it, but sadly it will not store links using the geo: URI scheme, so no app-independent location links.
    Is there a similar app that will do this? A web-app would be best, but an Android app would be ok too.
