i have this crazy idea of doing something with google maps as a self initiated project. i've been having it for a while and think it is time to carry this out. i have *just* enough coding knowledge to freak around a bit with the API.
Anyway, one thing i always wondered, you can't change the look/colors of the existing map material, eh? i believe you can only work with overlays, polygons etc.
Anyway, let's gather all information, resources and hacks in the coming days, here in this thread.

easily integrate a map on your website, with a simple form.. and what's better: it integrates a combination of Google Maps AND Bing Maps in one go... interesting!

Plot multiple locations on a map very easily. I map foreclosure data for my city on this for work.

somewhat off-topic but this is crazy: http://googlesightseeing.com/200…
nail houses, people who refuse to leave their property to make room for large building projects.. the japanese airport conflict with the local farmers is crazy!
"The phenomenon of “homeowner holdout” isn’t just constrained to private homes either. At Tokyo’s Narita Airport, the proposed layout of the tarmac was completely ruined by several farmers, who steadfastly refused to sell their land to the airport. You can see how the runways weave around the various farms that get in their way, as well as being split into tiny, useless segments by other bits of farmland."
