There has been much jubilation since Google announced their javascript-based maps API yesterday. I’ve been playing with it a little and have updated the Grand Rapids WiFi google map to use the new API. The web pages produced this way are much more responsive than those using the old hacks, and it’ll be great to see what people produce now we have official support.

I’m hoping to shortly release a new version of the WiFi site which allows search results to be plotted on a map (or viewed as a list as at present). Until then, this implementation remains ‘experimental’.
