Adding Google Maps to your website

November 8th, 2006, 10:19 AM

Hi there

We have recently launched a website that works in conjunction with Google Maps.

It's essentially a tool that helps webmasters add free, custom Google Maps to their websites, without the need for technical knowledge. I would be grateful if you could check it out and let me know what you think (the address is http://www.aardvarkmap.net )

Thanks

Aaron

Hey, it's free! Here's where I live, 400 yards from the forest

Click for Aardvark Map

I like it, it's easy to use and since it's free and powered by the mighty Google I'm sure I'll find a use for it

The only problem I can see is that it doesn't appear to support non-latin characters so the Ł in Popiełuszki doesn't show up properly in the marker.

Thanks, Geoff... glad you like it.

I don't know if the non-Latin characters is something we can control, or if it's in the hands of Google... let me go and find out for you...

Not bad we might actually use something like this on the site

Thanks...

I'm a Messenger man usually (I know, it's just that's what most others seem to use :oops: )... will see if I can get you on that.

Hi AaronD... I'm not a true Aaron like you... I'm Aaron the Aardvark (to keep withe brand) :oops: :lol:

disciple... don't look like the board supports HTML... when you create a map, you want to select the BBCode option in order to post here.

Thanks for that; it said it was so easy that any idiot could create a personal map, however, they didn't claim that any idiot could post a link to that map!???? This idiot will have to learn to read instructions more closely in the future (and will get around to fixing that F up in a couple of days).
