Thanks for the add Dezi
As far I can see this is a german copy of "France Passion", not that big yet.
Same formula, same idea.
I only wonder why it took that long for the germans to lauch such thing. They still have a long way to go to catch up with France Passion; but the beginning is there and I hope it will be succesfull.

Hi Leo,
I think the reason that it took so long to launch was its name. The green onion is a bit wacky and implies a sense of humour. The Germans were concerned the Brits may lose the mainstay of 500 years joke making on the subject.

Nah... nothing like FP... there's GPS coordinates and maps and everything... people will be able to find them! But seriously.. look forward to the site growing.

Of course they cannot equal PF (1400 adresses !). I downloaded their PDF file (found it in the german language part) and this shows 25 adresses (+GPS).
The idea is good (the same as FP). Only give them credit; FP started also small about 15 years ago.
For the moment it is still free
