Flaming Desks is a blog…

I’ve been playing around with the Google Maps API to try and use it for registration of desks. I think I’ve got it sorted :

1. Collect basic info about company and contact at the company
2. Take company address (company doesn’t need to make this public, but we need it)
3. Show map with address marked on it [still to decide how to handle it if Google can't find the address]
4. User drags marker on map until happy with location, then moves to next step

And here’s the map bit:

Try putting in your own address and clicking ‘go’. Try dragging and dropping the flame around - you can see that the latitude and longitude changes as you do this.

This isn’t particularly clever stuff but I’m pleased with it all the same!
