Thoughts?

It really helped me out to create a custom badge for my Google Latitude account. Nonetheless, I would like to go a little bit further. Instead of having access only to the latest location, I would like to access my Latitude History, which is private and is never disclosed with any badge approach. Are you familiar with the Latitude API? Basically I want to use this API to access the location history of a specific Google Account with Latitude enabled (given the necessary keys and so forth) and plot them on a Google Map. Plotting points on a Google Map with its API is pretty straightforward, but I still didn't find any way to do the other part (fetch the location history). Can you give me some hints?

You can actually add zoom/drag to Google Maps. You just have to do it yourself. This is what I did <a href="http://www.gpsfrance.net/services/address2gps.php" rel="nofollow">here</a>. 2. I can't really tell you what happened. I tested the google maps webservice <a href="http://www.gpsfrance.net/services/multiple.php" rel="nofollow">here</a> and inputed the generated coords in google maps and the point was perfectly placed. Best regards, Florent Hi DT,

The reason I was looking for this was because Latitude's map isn't right for what I need (user can't zoom/drag, and the badge doesn't look that great design-wise). So I wanted to just grab the coords from latitude and input it into a regular google map interface. So I put this together (inputting the coords into a wp plugin called Simple Google Map), however the location on the regular google map is coming out slightly differently to the one on Latitude, it's about half a km out of place. Would you happen to know why? I know it's not the topic of this article, but I see you're fairly on top of this stuff. Many thanks Hey Florent,
