I'm not gonna get all deep or anything. My friday afternoon was getting a bit dull so i jumped on the google api bandwagon and came up with this little piece.
The All New Twelvestone Interactive World Map
It's rough and you can't delete if you mess up. But go ahead and add away.
By the way, this shit is easy, i was very impressed.

I think Maporama or whatever is giving the Lat/Long in the opposite sequence than your asking for, because I found mine, put it in and it came up in like turkey.
I don't live in turkey.

Ive been playing around with it for a few weeks - Im going to break up with my lady and marry Google instead.

Mine came up OK. well, close enough, it's got me living somewhere in the US i think my latitude is off a bit there.
.
Maybe you live in Colorado, Turkey?

Yeah, I came up in the middle of the medeterranian sea, just off the coast of Syria.
So either I cut'n'pasted the lat and long wrong, or I am an aquatic terrist and didn't even know it.

did you perhaps forget a negative sign?

yeah, you guys are doing something wrong...make sure you use the decimal version of your lat long and dont forget neg signs and shit
ShEx 2005.08.19, 05:47PM —
I'm gonna delete those odd ones so you guys can try again, i guess you're missing something.
Stmoo, possak - apparantly you guys suck at the interent and are using IE, and this is a known bug. I'm just looking in to it.

I copied and pasted, I didn't type them in.
Like So:
Lat: 35° 9' , -101° 53'
Long: 35.166 , -101.886
From here.
It is still possible that format came accross wrong or I missed a tick mark or something.

No tie, that lat, long on top and bottom. yours would be
LAT = 35.166
LONG = -101.886

I think i see what you're doing. Maporama gives you 4 numbers in the bottom left, you want the bottom 2, not the left 2 - if that helps.
edit: nevermind, just saw your posts
