I have been playing recently with embedding google maps in my wiki. I’d like to be able to visually represent locations, and connect them with data. For example, take a picture of a view(or a um interesting rock), and show the location of the view(rock) on a map. Or, link the location of my brother with information about him. For now, the icons are really boring, but I am learning some new tricks.

It turns out that google maps are really quite fun. There is a lot of information out there about how to manipulate google’s javascript code.

As a side project, I decided to create a google map of Hyrule. For the uninitiated, Hyrule is the name of the video game world in The Legend of Zelda one of the best titles for the original Nintento Entertainment System. My plan is to provide a instructions for a speed route through the game via a map with pretty icons(coming soon).
