MAPme Widget Tries to Best Google MapsSeptember 3rd, 2008 at 9:30 amSource:TechCrunch MAPme announced today that it has released a Google Maps widget that will let users perform tasks that they are already capable of performing with the run-of-the-mill Google Maps application, but will let them embed the flash app as a widget anywhere they can edit HTML, which should make frustrated Google Maps users happy. According to the company, the MAPme widget is a pure flash object that lets you add your own images or YouTube videos to your map’s hotspots. And in case you need them, the widget lets you populate the map with a series of markers. To add a social flavor, the MAPme widget lets users create and contribute hotspots that may be of interest to others. |
