Poi Factory - No HTTPS
I just logged in using another browser and was alerted this site does not offer HTTPS. I never caught it in the past but wondering why there is no port 443 option or certificate available. I'm not worried but it sparked my interest.
Thanks.
UPDATING THREAD: OK, thanks for the info!

Email Offer of a TomTom (possible scam)
I'm putting this content into the general discussion group because a Garmin user may get an email similar to what I've received. I don't currently own a TomTom although I did almost 20 years ago. Anyway it is an email offer to get a new TomTom. The email comes from noreply@emails.tomtom.com and has a "Buy Now" button to receive a 35% discount on a new purchase.

Problem sending update to POI Maintainer thru POI Factory ?
I have been trying to send an update for the Burger king POI to mahoney via the contact tab. Have also checked the box to send myself a copy. Since he hasn't responded, I assume he isn't getting the messages. And I am not getting a copy either. Is anyone else having issues sending messages on POI Factory?

Eclipse 4-8-2024 USA
2 1/2 hours of eclipse packed in to 16 minutes. Apparently I took 315 still shots. I guess it would have been better on a camera stand and without the occasional cloud cover but here's my contributions to the zillions of eclipse pictures you'll see today.
Taken in my backyard in Southeastern PA with a Lumix camera and solar filter.

Anyone travelling near Baltimore be familiar with the alternatives
The Key bridge was hit by a very large vessel around 1:30 AM and has essentially been demolished. Hopefully devices will provide suitable alternative routing for travelers. Updates on the event are at numerous sources including, https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/03/26/baltimore....
