Updated using the new Kiva EXPORT button!
Still a multi-stage cut & paste process but thankfully no new coding required – expect more updates…
Celebrated with quite a few new loans from around the world.
See who you could loan to at kiva.org
Thanks to Henry and his gift for my assistance with: http://www.kivashoppingclub.com
I have been able to loan to a Cheesemaker in Chinandega, Nicaragua.
Kiva provides each lender with a basic Excel spreadsheet of their loan data to download, I take that and twirl it around in Editgrid – and add a bit more data for myself.
From my web site I can then link to a dynamically created and formatted data file from Editgrid, which looks just like the json file my web page is expecting.
I have set up a file for kivafriends.org people to copy here
a map view (entirely within Editgrid but still using Exhibit 2.0 AJAX stuff) is here.

Following the repayment in full by Maria Adela Celestino Lucio I have made a new loan today to Ingrid Tigrero, from Guayaquil, Ecuador for her poultry business.
With my second full repayment, by Hadija Ally, I have made a new loan to Komi Tengue from Lomé, Togo for him to buy arable land and cassava stems for planting.
I thought you might be interested in how we help people with Kiva loans.

Congratulations you old loaner ;)
I just found Kiva today through your site and Linda and I love it. It’s a brilliant idea!
By the way, are you hardcoding the xml for this map?
