This is how I set the bounds on my map so that each user sees his area
specifically. The bounds will set the center and the zoom automatically.
var map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById("map_canvas"),
myOptions);
// Fetch bounding box via ajax or however you want
var swPoint = new google.maps.LatLng( lat, lng)
var nePoint = new google.maps.LatLng(lat, lng)
var bounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds(swPoint, nePoint);
map.fitBounds(bounds);
Hope this helps,
George
