Thing 32 - Google Maps & Mashups

I played with Google Maps and created "my map" showing the places I have lived. I tried to link it to this blog post, but the html that I pasted into my blog entry did not take me to "my map"! I tried several times, unsuccessfully. Now I'm thinking maybe it needs to be added as a widget??? If you see a map of the places I have lived, you'll know I was successful. There were lots of interesting mashups - I could make one of hotels/motels and restaurants to avoid!! We could make a map that shows the locations of all our library branches (oh yes, someone already did that...)
