Google Maps API

I’ve playing around with the Google Maps API and I like it. Well documented, with nice examples. The question is: what’s the next step? How can I create value from it? :)

I’ve noticed a little tiny annoying bug: if you want to have more than one map with directions, you have to put them in the same table! If you close the table tag, only one of  the maps will be enable! The other one will be an empty, grey google map. (Some technical details: 1 – I don’t like to be forced to use table; 2 – I don’t understand… the map is identified in the DOM structure: why do I need to create a parent called table?; 3 – only one table tag? how can I put text or other elements, with putting them in table rows?!; 4 – how can I control the ajax request? try to write china and wait a couple of minutes for the result…)
