What's up wankers? I need to knock out a thingy that shows a map or Google Earth type of display where we automatically zoom around from place to place and briefly show some info at each place. You know the type of thing I mean... we zoom in on Paris, pause while a pop-up appears with some Paris-related info, fade the pop-up out, then zoom out and over to Brisbane, then zoom in there and display a pop-up with some Australia info, etc.
I bet people on this list have made this type of things dozens of times. But I'm hoping some of you can give me some suggestions as to which technologies/libraries I should use, and maybe point me to some relevant tutorials or examples. I'm a fine JavaScript and processing Programmer so am comfortable in either of those two languages. (I can get by in python and perl if the method of choice requires one of those languages). This thing can be browser based, Google Earth based, or a stand alone app, whichever is the least hassle. How do you think I should proceed? Thanks everyone! Chris Spurgeon PS> At first investigation I thought the Google Earth API might be the way to go, but I read that they're killing it off. Does that change things?
