In a few weeks, we're going to turn on functionality to log marker locations and info window content within mashups using the JS Maps API v2. This is very exciting since it'll enable us to include them in Google Maps search results and will also introduce greater visibility into your maps applications.
Check out the blog post below for more information: http://googlegeodevelopers.blogspot.com/2009/11/finding-mashups-needle-in-haystack.html Once again, indexing hasn't been launched yet. Be aware that when it does, it'll be enabled by default for all non-premier customers of the API. To maintain privacy of data, see the bullet points below which I've reposted from the blog post: ==== 1. We only index data from maps that have been viewed by many unique users. For example, maps only viewed by you and a few friends won't be indexed. 2. If your page is protected by robots.txt, we will not index your content. 3. You can opt-out of the logging by specifying "indexing=false" when loading the API For example: http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2&key=abcdefg&sensor=false&indexing=false 4. If you are a Maps API Premier customer, we will not index data from your maps, unless you opt into indexing by passing in "indexing=true". ==== If you already know you wish to opt out, feel free to append the new "&indexing=false" parameter in your maps applications now. As always, please reply back to this thread with any comments or concerns you have. Thanks, Dann -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
