Mashing Up Google Maps

Ever wanted to create your own Google map? Now you can. Its called a mashup and the blog www.googlemapsmania.blogspot.com offers the instructions as well as countless custom maps.

The beautiful feature is that people want you to add information to their maps. Share your favorite shopping spots around the world, add to the San Diego Trolly trip map or create a virtual tour of your last vacation. My dream is a way to map walkways and bikepaths.

Today the blog is filled with maps relating to 9-11.
