Google releases Maps API

Google has officially released an API, for Google Maps.

A bit from the official announcement–

The Google Maps API is a free toolkit that enables developers to create computer programs that interact directly with the Google Maps system. With the Google Maps API, developers can embed
Google Maps in their own web pages with JavaScript.

Also noteworthy is that this new Maps API can be found right alongside the previously released APIs launched by Google including Google Web API, Google AdWords API and the Google Desktop API.
