Custom Google Maps

A beta of My Maps has come out for Google Maps, which allows you to post locations, draw lines and shapes, and add pictures. Here's the Rome/Vatican City part of our trip to Europe back in '04:

Rome/Vatican City 2004





With placeholders for all of the the other parts of the trip, I was able to draw those cool red lines between destinations like in those Indiana Jones maps.



It's still a rough feature, but it's worth playing around with. Hopefully it will get better integration with Picasa soon. Hubert, any connection to this project?

Very nifty (plus, as Drew points out, nicely furthering their goal of world domination)

Nah, but we'll use it to make a wedding map or something :)
