Thanks to Judah for reminding me about OWA. I’m sure I ran into a reference to it several months ago but they hadn’t built anything yet. Well, I’ve now got Release Candidate 1.0.8rc2 installed.

You can download it here, the installation for Wordpress is relatively simple, installs just like any other plugin. The OWA group also has a wiki, though documentation seems a bit light so far.

I don’t have much of an opinion yet except these two things:

  1. Installation (at least on WP) is a snap
  2. The Geolocation feature seems to be broken

On the note of the Geolocation, I entered my Google Maps API key but I get errors when trying to view the geolocation reports and the download to Google Earth feature also appears to not work…I’ve posted a couple of questions to the OWA discussion group but haven’t heard back yet.

If anyone has experienced this, or has any idea about what to do to fix it, I’d love to hear from you.

Also, if anyone else out there is running OWA I’d like to hear about your experiences with it.
