Wow! Google has some really impressive stuff if you can use it. No wonder they are becoming "the web"

I'm trying to comprehend how to do that because it is soo cool.

Thats really good. Tried it on Google Earth today. One thing that i would like to know is how people are geocoding the XML data from the BBC? For example how are you tagging the traffic news up with location data? Thanks James.

James: The tpeg (not rss last time i checked) traffic feeds from the bbc contain the lat/lon locations of the points for each traffic item hence I just get them from there.

I am 75 and spent a lot of time cycle touring and seeing Europe in a Campervan. Campsites could be marked and Cycle paths like the UK Sustrans, along the Rhine and all those in the USA etc. Maybe small aerodromes also. Is this possible, please tell.

ovendoor: the file seems fine to me, email me with any problems and any questions about the source - see the site for my email address

derrick:it would be possible, but I don't know where you could get the data from or have the time to compile it myself
