Time to get some of this down before I forget what I did. I've switched the mapping over to Google Maps cause Google just does it so well compared to everyone else. When Google Maps first came out there were some incompatibility issues (it didn't work with Safari) and there are certainly still some issue with older browsers, but I think it's a sufficiently nice system so I decided to make it the default. Actually default implies there is a choice, which there isn't as of right now. I'm thinking about adding that option in the future -- the ability to choose either Google maps or Mapquest for instance. One thing that Google Maps does lack is handling of 9 digit zip code, which I'd eventually like. Google's still actively developing this though so I imagine it'll come along soon.
Also, you can now update your email address and change your picture under Settings when you are logged in to your account.
Finally, on the blog front, I got the Archives up now. Yes there's only four or five posts, but still archives are good to have.
