Annotation Scenarios

Adding the Missing Information

Akif loves to travel and he always takes photos and notes about the places he went. He wanted to share some information about a iron & steel factory he visited in Sivas but he could not remember the name of the first operators name. So he writes a memory post about the factory and he leaves a question indicating that he could'nt remember nor found the first managers name.

The iron factory ERMADEN started to work at 1938. (Couldn't remember the first managers name?) There is a huge train station passing near the factory so that the materaials can be transferred.

After that, Ali, who lives in Sivas/Divriği founds this memory post which is pinned to the location near he lives. It attracts his interest so he clicks and sees the information that Akif is missing. Ofcourse Ali knows the answers so he adds an annotation to Akif's question.

It is first operated by ETIBANK.

So the missing information is added.

Back in these days, trolleybuses were very common in Istanbul. I was used to going to the school with trolleybuses when I was a student. I remember that these vehicles often stopped working because of power cuts. They were present on the roads of Istanbul until 1990.

Hüseyin Yılmaz, another member of hiStory, sees the Memory Post Turgut has published. Hüseyin is also retired. He worked at IETT for long years.
