As reported on the Google Maps Mania blog, maps.google.com was updated with new street tile imagery for several European and Asian countries last week. The tile update went through to the Maps API tiles shortly after, so now Maps API developers can develop mashups to take advantage of the updated tiles. If you want a quick way to look around the updated imagery, click on the country flags below and you’ll be zoomed in to that country. We look forward to seeing the mashups developers come up with for the updated countries - ping us in the forums if you want us to check out your mashup, or if you have any questions. [/quote]
I’ve added a Google Map to the forums - see the link in the upper right corner site map.
You can add your own location from the Member Center (top right corner of the forum) - go to the middle of the form and you will see a link called “Find your coordinates”. This will allow you to use a map to choose your location. Just double click on that map to select your location.
If you set your coordinates, then you should be visible in the default map on the forums. The location parameter in your posts will also become a link to your location in the Forumosa Google Map
Please post comments and questions (and answers) here.
Apparently, this does map NOT slow down the website (this has already been asked)
