I'm working on a more basic version of this for OSM (first time I've ever done anything AJAXy - lawks). Am probably going to need some help from a hardcore OpenLayers junkie though...
Yes, the idea is that the map cycles through the most recently edited places - so you can see where people are working.
For OSM it'll by necessity be pretty limited right now: the /changes API doesn't tell you who's doing the editing, nor (of course) rerender the tiles on demand. But I think it'll be interesting nonetheless.

That looks interesting. What is it? Are this the latest corrections to the OSM data? Longbow4u
