You need to review the terms of use, see
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/faq.html#tos_nonweb

Some people use the URL where their application is available for
public download for their key.

If you are building a new project you might consider starting out with
v3 API which doesn't use a key (but the same terms still apply)
