Lary, I want guidelines on how can I achieve the task stated in my
question with Google maps. So if you can tell me follow these steps to
display demographics, lets say i want to show the readership details
of news paper , I have data for each state, how can I display these on
google maps? I want to color the states polygon but I don't have
latitude and longitudes of polygon.
