If any of those or any other challenges of using map embeds on your platform sound challenging to you, look no further - CartoDB is now a supported Embedly endpoint.

If you missed our Valentine’s Day blog post you may have also missed that CartoDB now has the ability to generate static images of dynamic maps from your accounts. Now we’ve added the capability directly to your CartoDB Editor.

It only takes a little bit of time working in the geospatial industry before you hear the name, Paul Ramsey. His work on PostGIS and helping to cultivate an amazing community around the open source geospatial technology is humbling. Beyond that though, a simple scan of his blog posts and you’ll see that he thinks deeply about not only open source, but how it does and should affect many aspects of business and government. He can move from a conversation about personally identifiable information to a conversation about the procurement process of local governments with impressive ease.
We have been longtime fans of Paul and finally today, get to announce that he is joining us here at CartoDB. To share this moment with you, we thought we would present a special blog post… 5 Questions with Paul Ramsey.
