Hi there,
I've recently wrote a Google Maps extension for Emacs[1].
Therefore, I've extended org-mode to display a Google Maps' map for an
event location. The extension, which is very simple, is available
here[2] and I wanted you to know about it.
I'd be glad to have feedback. patches or ideas. ;)
Happy hacking.

Julien, this is really nice,
but... the image is not displayed in the 'Map' buffer.
'bug' report follows.
cheers,

Hi,
cool stuff :)!
Julien Danjou <julien@danjou.info> writes:

I found a minor problem:
* Summary
Zooming on map fails if not 'initialized' with z
* Steps to reproduce
- `M-x google-maps'
- Location: `Statue of Liberty New York'
Buffer Google-Maps is created, Statue of Liberty is displayed.
- Press `+'
- Message: `Current zoom level is unknown, cannot zoom in.'
- Set a level with z: `M-1 M-5 z'
- Zooms to level 15, `+' and `-' work as expected.
* System
- GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.20.1) of
2010-06-19 on elegiac, modified by Debian
- git show google-maps.el
commit d4f4916b5c9bb37025e86fef079292bf1604cfb5
Author: Joseph Gay <gilleylen@gmail.com>

It would be nice the initial zoom level of a map would be set right at
the beginning.

Wow - works pefect on emacs 24!
'Current zoom level is unknown'
I guess `google-maps-static-default-zoom' is not set (possible patch
appended).
Thanks for sharing :)
We where talking about GEO locations and org-mode recently:

The problem is that this is not possible. The zoom level, if not
specified, is determined automatically by Google Maps, and we have no
clue about its value.
Therefore you need to press 'w' (with an eventual prefix) to set a first
zoom level.

You mean 'z' maybe?
I bind google-maps in addressbook-bookmark.el, that allow to jump on
gmap from a contact in addressbook (C-c g m).
addressbook is part of bookmark-extensions:

Specifying zoom level at startup seem to fix the problem:
,----
| (defun google-maps (location &optional no-geocoding)
| "Run Google Maps on LOCATION.
| If NO-GEOCODING is t, then does not try to geocode the address
| and do not ask the user for a more precise location."
| (interactive
| (list
| (if (use-region-p)
| (buffer-substring-no-properties
| (region-beginning) (region-end))
| (read-from-minibuffer "Location: "
| nil nil nil nil
| (replace-regexp-in-string
| "\n" " "
| (or (thing-at-point 'sentence) ""))))))
| (let ((location (if no-geocoding
| location
| (google-maps-geocode-location location))))
| (google-maps-static-show :zoom google-maps-static-default-zoom
| :markers `(((,location))))))
`----
I use 10 as default value for `google-maps-static-default-zoom'.

Dear Julien
I tried to use Google Maps extension. When I tried to load it, I found out
that json.el was required. It seems that this package is included in "recent"
emacs version (?). My version is GNU Emacs 22.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of
2008-09-06. I loaded it but then I have another error telling that the function
use-region-p doesn't exist. It seems that this function appears with emacs 23.
So this mail just to tell that it seems necessary to have at emacs 23
to make this function work.
Best regards

Just one comment following previous mail.
Just tried with emacs 23.2. It works very well on this version and it is
really great.
The bad thing is that this version of emacs is quite slow on Windows system.
As far I understood it seems to be related to font handling. There is a lot of
lag, the system freeze.
So sadly I have to return to release 22.3.1 which is more robust.
