Embedded Maps

It's now easy to embed a maps.google.com map in your own web page. It can include map searches, get directions, My Maps, KML files and GeoRSS files. It can't include Mapplets as well.

The content is dynamic. The display shows the current result of performing the search or loading the My Map file. All you have to do is to go to maps.google.com and set up the view exactly how you want it, then click on "Link to this page" and copy the "Paste HTML to embed in website" text into your own web page. No API key is required. No knowledge of Javascript is required.There's a "Customise and preview" option that allows you to change the size of the embedded map.
