Upload tracks to other than Google Maps #1247

Hi,

I really like My Tracks and use it on many occasions - so thank you.

It would be really helpful, though, to be able to upload tracks to sites other 
than Google Maps.  This would enable users to send their tracks to special 
interest websites.  For instance, I use My Tracks to plot dog walks.  It would 
be very useful to be able to then easily upload that data directly to a dog 
walking website.

To an extent this can already be achieved by saving eg a GPX file and then 
uploading that but it is somewhat cumbersome.

All that would be required is one additional parameter called, say 'web-hook' 
that would specify a URL to which to send a track file.  Ideally that file 
should be the KML file as that seems to hold additional data but any file of 
data would do as it can easily be parsed on the server.

Many thanks for a great app,

Doug

In the next release, one sync can all files as kml to google drive. From there, 
other web sites can use the Google Drive api to access a user's kml files.
