遊戲：
Heineken Google Maps Game - Heineken in Holland is making use of the Google Maps API for a fun little game on their website. To try it out you have to navigate some Dutch wording. Go here, then click "Ja" (right side) then click "Start Met De Tour". The object of the game is to center the map until your radio reception reaches 100%. I've only ever been able to tune into 99%, but the band sounds good! Good Luck.
Google Map Attack - Here's a cool new Google Maps game that lets you find key locations on the map. Signin with a username and password to log your points each time you come back, then start the available challenges. They range from finding Lake Erie to the Moscow Pentagram. Hints come in handy.. and hey - no cheating! Have fun!
G-Map Games (Firefox browser only) - These demo games show how Google Maps and Flash can be combined to have some fun. Created by a student at Perdue University, there are 3 to choose from (Blast is about the best) after you click "Demo".

= FIFA World Cup 2006 Team & Venue News Mashup


Virender Ajmani is busy mashing up maps and news feeds once again. This time he has taken the Yahoo! FIFA 2006 World Cup RSS Feeds, Google News RSS Feeds and the Google Maps API to create a unique "News Map" for the coming World Cup event being held in Germany this June. The resulting map helps you easily read team news from each competing nation, as well as find news for each of the host cities.



除了以上及軍事用途。另外還有即時新聞、Gps、flickr、狗仔、氣象、地鐵、飯店、溫泉、颱風、旅遊規劃、災害預防、動物遷習監控(看過鯊魚、大象)、老舊地圖比對(幾年來新竹海岸線差異...)...跟webcam(交通、旅遊點、郵輪、火山、南北極冰層...)結合，圖我就懶得抓了，總之想得到的，google跟眾網友們都能做到(當然絕大部分應用都在國外)，還有一些太閒的人會去找ufo及軍事設施，如航空母艦、隱形戰機，甚至會找到一些靈異現象如漂浮的車子跟圖案...。
