I just spent my entire afternoon and most of my evening today working on this little “google maps” clone. Basically I created a map linking my kingdom (a.k.a. my blog) to my projects and my friend’s website. The code was largely based on the Pragmatic Ajax book with my own modifications (keyboard attachment, moving the viewport to a certain tile) I think it’s pretty cool to see how the Google Maps has been done. Now I can have my own version of my world map too.
The link is here if you want to go directly to it. Otherwise, check out the iframe window below. The code is quite buggy at this time because this is purely javascript hacking.
If you open the page in its own windows, you can use the arrow buttons to navigate or the menu for quick jump (I don’t think Iframe can properly catch the event trigger to enable keyboard scrolling)
