Big fun: Google Maps API

GoogleMapsAPI.jpg

Having big fun playing with the Google Maps API! Got two keys, one for myself, one for the newspaper portal I'm working for, and constructed some pages.

The first one integrated in an iFrame in the newspaper website, and two pages so far for myself, checking out what's possible - and that's a bloody lot. So far I've produced a map with navigation in the side bar, and a second one to get the Geocodes you need for the navigation URL's in the side bar of the first one.

They both look nice now, linking to each other. More work to be done, though. The goal might be to combine all functions in one big map, but I'm not sure I'd like to do that, maybe better to keep it this way. But first I have to learn how to make the pop up's look nicer, maybe use my own icon placemarks, how to integrate the 'to here' and 'from here' directions into the pop-ups.

There's a pretty comprehensive Google Maps API Documentation manual at Google, and I made the first Map at the newspaper based on that manual.

The second and the third map I couldn't have done without the great Google Maps API Tutorial from Mike Williams.

Of course, but what do you think about that?,

The person who coined the phrase “There’s no such thing as bad PR” probably never had to deal with a corporate accounting scandal or life-threatening product recall. However, a well-conceived “dark site,” which contains background information about the company and up-to-date images of its key people and products, can be an invaluable asset in the event of a crisis. Wieck develops and maintains these sites, which remain hidden from public view until our customers give us the word to go live. Then, when media hits increase exponentially, our system can easily handle the surge in Web traffic without compromising your mission-critical operations.
