Greetings,

I recently released Magic Maps 1.1, a low-price mapping program for Mac with GIS features. You can read about it here:

Of particular interest to cartographers will be the instant preview of map projections and the new multi-touch controls for manipulating projection parameters.

With the new version 1.1, I have tried to address the concerns of reviewers of Magic Maps 1.0. I think I have a great product and encourage you to learn more about it.

Welcome, Evan!

I saw a preview of this product a few months ago and was quite impressed. The website speaks for itself, but I would say the primary market is not cartographers compiling new reference maps, but rather our colleagues in the social sciences who want to put together good-looking thematic or statistical maps but find the learning curve of ArcGIS or Google Maps daunting.

Hi Dennis,

Thanks for the welcome and clarification. I'll keep an eye on this thread in case anyone has any questions about the product.
