I've built a Excel little program that allows me to create XML pages that can be directly imported into google maps. Having the program in Excel is nice for me because I've got so much data that is already in that format and translates well to simple gmaps. My first test of the system was to create a list of farmers' markets in Seattle:
Farmers' Markets in Seattle
The set-up has the ability to post custom icons (notice the tulips), links and photos.
Right now I'm looking for ideas of things people would be interested in seeing mapped in Seattle. For example, I think it would be nice to have the "off-leash" areas for dogs and I may put that graphic together tonight. Any other ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. And if you are interested in seeing my code (simple VBA stuff) that makes this happen, just let me know.
