##Description:
geolocation information aggregator.
creepy is an application that allows you to gather geolocation related information
about users from social networking platforms and image hosting services.
The information is presented in a map inside the application where all the
retrieved data is shown accompanied with relevant information (i.e. what
was posted from that specific location) to provide context to the presentation.
##Features

*OpenStreetMaps
2)Location information retrieval from :

**Coordinates when tweet was posted from mobile device
**Place (geographical name) derived from users ip when posting on twitter's web interface.
Place gets translated into coordinates using geonames.com
**Bounding Box derived from users ip when posting on twitter's web interface.
The less accurate source , a corner of the bounding box is selected randomly.
*Geolocation information accessible through image hosting services API
*EXIF tags from the photos posted.
