Sounds very cool, Tony. I'm having problems with the link you provided, though, so I'll check back to see it in action later.
Rupert (from this forum) is using google map links in the time-posts of his videos over at CrowdAbout.us. Poor guy is going to think I've started stalking him, but I was amazed and pleased to see just how immediate and contextual information like this is, when presented along with video, and how it helped to make the connection to the content and the creator more tangible. It's got me thinking we should even make it an option, and turn the link into the map display right in the post.
