You can also use MapServer to generate overlays for use directly in Google maps. There's a tile mode directly in the CGI or you can use a tile caching solution. I've had terrific luck with mod-geocache lately generating tiles for the Google grid but limiting tile creation to a geographic area (e.g. just Minnesota). Mod-geocache is very efficient and can default to a single blank tile outside that extent.
