    What the hell is it with this aminosity between American/European members of this board? Yeesh. Get a grip on reality - you're no better than "they" are.

    For the UK, Streetmap does a pretty good job. Just Google (heh) "map uk".

    They're based in america. Why is it so odd that they would try to do their home country.

    That still doesn't mean he should flame an american internet company for providing services to americans. I mean, sure it would be much cooler for them to provide services to everyone, but it's nowhere near as easy as it sounds.

    Rumor has it is that Google is indeed working on a browser, a customized version of Firefox...


    I saw this today on slashdot:
    <a href='http://jgwebber.blogspot.com/2005/02/mapping-google.html' target='_blank'>Dissecting Google Maps</a>

    Someone looked at all the fancy DHTML / XML stuff and posted about how most of its innards (at least the front-end) work. Very interesting stuff if you're a web developer.

    I thought they just bought out the company that made that?

    They did.

    I would wager that some Keyhole technology made its way into this though...
