You should take a look at OpenLayers. You can make a webpage with OSM as the background, then add your own information as a transparent layer on top. You can have many layers and turn them on and off. Here is a very simple example: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Openlayers_POI_layer_example But there are many other examples on the web, and a lot of OpenLayers documentation.
