On the more constructive side:
I have no idea what toggles I have clicked. some are on and some are off in this pictures, but i forgot which and there are no visible indicators.Also the view is horrible on my desktop. the little tiny map view. tons of wasted space.
Not looked on a mobile device.

Ya good note.. you are correct we can work on that. The system does resize for different browsers and screen resolution sizes. You are using a smaller resolution than what we would consider normal at this time for PCs... bigger resolutions it looks great, but there was a middle size with the media screens that looked a little funky which is what you are seeing and then it gets bigger again for IPAD/Tablet and Mobile phone devices.
Not sure if you can go to a higher resolution but that would help a lot. Above 1600 pixel width it really opens up and looks nice.

I agree with Jared, there is a ton of wasted white space.
Here is my 1080p monitor.

Well I am trying to save some space on the top for some ads to keep the site alive if it ever gets there where enough people use this but ya it does just look like white space now.

Aww.. Ok that makes sense.
Can you overlay the address stuff at the bottom over the map itself with the option to hide it?

You know I was thinking of doing that. We could probably float that UI over the top of it and create those hide / drag windows out of that instead. Part of the problem is this site is using a Bootstrap framework which is becoming the standard for web dev but I am not good at it at all yet and don't know the tools I am supposed to work with on it so it's difficult to make some basic edits on some things.

By the way guys we will be constantly updating this. By the way per your request we have added some of the Verizon On Net Buildings data that we have. It is just for California right now. If you follow us on any of our social media pages or blog you will see updates there so you know when we are covering more in your areas.

Hi Jared.. btw way the toggle highlights like you wanted were added tonight too. Thanks for that helpful idea.

Hi guys,
Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but many new changes implemented and thanks to some of your comments. Take a look if you have some time. We are adding fiber maps to the tool.. XO right now is the most extensive.. you can literally see all the data center buildings nationwide on their map.. there are several others as well.. we have added about a 100,000 on net buildings as well and made the tool more user friendly with sharing of search results capability in the URL.
Hope you guys like.
