Another demonstration of the usefulness of the Google Map Embedder tool.
The original Earth As Art Google Map was created by Jonathan Perkins. I’ve taken his KML overlay of images from the NASA/USGS website Our Earth As Art and displayed them on the map below, using the satellite view instead.

Here’s a great classroom example from a UK geography teacher who has created a map of a local fieldwork enquiry:

Got word of another option, MyMaps+
Another way to embed Google MyMaps into your web page or weblog.

I used mymaps to embed some info for a book we read in 8th grade this year and then used mymaps+ to put it at http://byrdmiddle.org/whirligig.html
Love the MyMaps embedding tool you developed! What do you think about adding a way to overlay multiple KML files. I’ve been desperately cruising the googlemaps forums for a way to embed a map with more than 50 markers. Lots of users are having the same issue.
See my example at http://www.liveworkdream.com/maps/
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Can’t help you Jim - though would like to make clear that the embedder tool is by Daniel Rubin. http://blog.dr2ooo.com/ I just wrote a user guide!
